| Abstract | Lexicographer Ammer has produced a number of musical dictionaries, and a history of women in American music. Here she defines the most commonly used musical terms, and others relating to music history with view to explaining the background of musical practice. The biographical articles focus on people's musical work, and leave details of their lives to other references. She includes pronunciation guides for all terms that are not common English words, extensive cross-referencing, and indexes of composers and instruments. |
