This fifth edition of classical music's Concise Oxford Dictionary beats all comers. Its range and detail go far beyond what one would normally expect of a single volume. (Jeremy Nicholas, Classic FM Magazine)
[A] cornerstone of music lovers' libraries...eminently browsable, with excellent articles on major composers from Beethoven to Stockhausen as well as intriguing facts and details. (Daniel Jaffe, BBC Music Magazine)
The third edition of this popular dictionary has been rewritten, not only to take account of recent research in familiar areas of musical history, but also to give full coverage to the development of music in the twentieth century and to reflect growing interest in early music and ethnomusicology.
