Editorial Reviews

Product Description
How do you spell Rachmaninov? Where do you place the hyphen in Hofmannsthal if it breaks across two lines? Is it premiere or premire? The answers and much more can be found in a new, essential resource for authors, students, editors, concert producers anyone who deals with music in print. An expanded version of the style sheet for the well- known journal 19th-Century Music, this small volume covers some of the thorniest issues of musical discourse: how to go about describing musical works and procedures in prose, the rules for citations in notes and bibliography, and proper preparation of such materials as musical examples, tables, and illustrations. One section discusses program notes, another explains the requirements of submitting manuscripts written on a word processor. An appendix lists common problem words.
