Sammanfattning: An introductory text for courses in music research, methodology and librarianship designed to introduce students to the basic concepts in how to conduct research in music. This book combines both a basic source list of key reference materials that every music student should know along with specific instruction in how to evaluate and use these resources. Following an introduction giving an overview of the universe of information available on music, the book then traces the research process, from choosing a topic to using books--from bibliographies to discographies, histories, and thematic catalogs--and periodicals, web sites, CD-ROM, and other information resources. The book concludes by showing the student how to synthesize what the research process has produced into a final paper. Intwo appendices, the book offers a select glossary of terms for research and non-English language terms commonly found in music research tools.
