Synopsis:

This compact guide to the history and performance of music is both authoritative and a pleasure to use. With entries drawn and condensed from the widely acclaimed "New Harvard Dictionary of Music" and its companion "The Harvard Biographical Dictionary of Music", it is a dependable reference for home and classroom and for professional and amateur musicians.

Review: Considering scope, reliability, and cost, this is the preferred single-volume music reference for college libraries, even though it overlaps the works on which it is based, which are in most academic collections. It will appeal to undergraduates and students majoring outside music, and will give reference librarians a promising first port of call for many types of inquiry.--G.A. Marco "Choice "
