The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians by
Over 29,000 articles and more than 6,000 contributors from 98 countriesOver 20,000 biographies and more than 5,000 photographs, diagrams, drawings, and mapsCoverage of new schools of thought within musicology, such as feminism and gay and lesbian musicIncreased coverage of jazz and popular musicmeticulously cross-referencedThousands of musical examplesSpecially commissioned maps and line drawings Since its initial publication in 1980, the Dictionary has been widely acclaimed as an indispensable resource and a classic reference. The word 'updated' doesn't begin to describe the thousands of new articles, topics, cross-references, and areas of scholarship incorporated into The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians. Every one of the first edition's 22,500 articles has been reviewed and revised, with thousands of articles expanded. Previously neglected or under-represented areas have been examined, explored, and explained. Movements and topics once deemed too controversial or too far from the mainstream have been added. And throughout, 6,500 new articles cover more than 5,000 years of music history, instruments, composers, institutions, performers, genres, and more. The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians takes you beyond the customary and familiar into new worlds with extensive, authoritative contributions on non-Western music. From major influences, such as Latin American music, to less-examined contributions, such as Asian, sub-Saharan African, and Pacific Islander, The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians presents the music, theory, instruments, and musicians that have helped to define music around the world.
