Summary
25 years ago, the four volumes of the first edition of this dictionary initiated a great expansion in American music scholarship. The articles of the dictionary range from small definitions of dance styles and musical terms to mid-length biographies of important performers, composers, and music patrons, to longer examinations of larger subjects such as the history of jazz, musical instruments, music education in the US and the American history of the orchestra.
