In 1973, when Musicdata began its operations, its goals were to locate and catalog all printed music published world-wide and to provide a means of keeping this information up to date. These goals have not changed. Over 900 international publishers supply Musicdata with their current catalogs and listings of music for sale or rent. The 33-volume series totals over 12,000 pages and over 360,000 separate entries. Entries contain the title, composer, arranger, instrumentation, publisher, publisher's catalog number, and other information such as duration and language as provided in the publisher's catalog.
Entries are cross-referenced by title, composer, and arranger.
Each volume contains a Guide to Use, a List of Abbreviations and a current Publisher Directory. 1999 Supplement Vol. 1999 Supplement is a welcome addition to the present Orchestral Music In Print volumes and the first new orchestral supplement since 1994. These volumes provide the most complete listings of orchestral music in the world. Available for immediate shipment.
