<br/><br/> "What is that tune? Where does it come from? The answers - for anyone who can hum a melody or tap it out on te piano - are in this dictionary. It contains more than 10,000 entries covering every important theme in classical music, including symphonies, concertos, other orchestral works, chamber music, sonatas, and all kinds of concert music. The themes are presented alphabetically according to composer, and coordinated with a Notation Index. The Dictionary is very easy to use, enabling the reader to quickly find: The precise source of any tune ; The major themes of all major instrumental works. The composers range from Byrd, Lully and Corelli to Gershwin, Shostakovich and Britten." -- Book jacket
