Sundry Sorts of Music Books

See all formats and editions

"Sundry Sorts of Music Books" collects essays by leading musicologists from Europe and North America celebrating the richness and diversity of the British Library's collections of manuscripts and printed music.

The contributions range from the 14th to the 20th century, and include music analysis and composer biography, as well as articles on bibliographic sources.

Reflecting the interests of O.W. Neighbour, to whom the book is dedicated, the emphasis is on 16th-17th and 20th-century studies, but among the subjects from other periods are the music of Handel and Mozart - two figures particularly well represented in the Library's holdings.
