"Since its first publication in 1988, The Norton/Grove Concise Encyclopaedia of Music has established itself as the only one-volume reference work that meets the needs of every music listener - from the occasional concert-goer wanting clear, succinct explanations to the serious music student and even music professional. Now revised and enlarged, the book presents accurate, up-to-date information under more than 10,000 headings. The entries cover all aspects of music, using material compelled by an international team of scholars for the twenty-volume New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, the foremost music reference work in the English language." -- Book jacket
