Sourcebook for Research in Music
"This essential, basic reference source will find its best use by the undergraduate and non-major student.." —American Reference Books Annual 2007"The review of the first edition of this book (CH, Apr'94, 31—4107) described it as more a graduate music course list than as a guide to reference sources. That description also applies to the new edition, which includes about 20 percent more titles than its predecessor and has been updated to catch a number of revised editions. Crabtree and Foster (both, formerly, Univ. of Cincinnati College—Conservatory of Music) give more attention in this new edition to areas of timely interest, such as gender, therapy, specific ethnic musics, copyright, recordings, and arts management. More online databases are listed, interspersed with the printed sources (the section Computer Aids to Music Research, however, is largely unchanged). More analytics appear under their collective titles, so as to make the book all the more useful for scanning and as an adjunct to academic lectures. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-level undergraduates through researchers/faculty. —D.W. Krummel, emeritus, University of Illinois at Urban" —Champaign, 2006june CHOICE--This text refers to an alternatePaperbackedition.
