Co mpo se r Res ou rce Man ual s
In response to the growing need for bibliographic guidance to the vast literature on
significant composers, Garland is publishing an extensive series of research guides.
This ongoing series encompasses more than 50 composers; they represent Western
musical tradition from the Renaissance to the present century.
Each research guide offers a selective, annotated list of writings, in all Euro-
pean languages, about one or more composers. There are also lists of works by the
composers, unless these are available elsewhere. Biographical sketches and guides
to library resources, organizations, and specialists are presented. As appropriate to
the individual composer, there are maps, photographs, or other illustrative matter,
glossaries, and indexes.
