FYI...

  • The start and stop dates for musical time periods are negotiable. Try using a century in your search to get more results. Example: Music -- 17th century.
  • If you're working with a generic title (example: Symphony No. 5, op. 67), check the composer's works list in Oxford Music Online to verify information about the work. (FYI - Symphony No. 5, op. 67 was written by Beethoven.)
  • Prominent scholars include: Claude Palisca, H. Wiley Hitchcock, Donald J. Grout, Andrew Dell'Antonio, and  Stanley Sadie.
