Review:
`Clearly presented and beautifully illustrated...A good starting point to give the thirsty young researcher an appetite for more!

'
Sheet Music

`The entries are simple, concise and readable...This will make a excellent addition to the music section in the library.

'
Mic 33

`Another splendid reference book from OUP...The Authors have the gift of encapsulating essentials in a brief paragraph..

'
The School Librarian

`will undoubtedly satisfy passing curiosity and very likely encourage more detailed follow-up elsewhere.

'
Music Teacher

`The book has terrific eye appeal, with dozens of full color illustrations ...More importantly, it has ear appeal, directing readers to listen to specific music identified in the text with a CD icon.
