Two volumes of anthologies are available for this text. Volume I covers Antiquity through the Baroque Era; Volume II covers music of the Classical Era to the present.
The works in the anthologies have been carefully selected to represent the developments in music history discussed in the text. Every selection in the Anthology of Scores is discussed in the text.
New works-New selections illustrating 19th-century virtuosity, 19th-century nationalism, and 20th-century jazz have been added.
Improved editions-New editions of selected works have been provided as needed. The excerpt from Lully's Armide, for example, now comes from the new (2003) edition of the composer's complete works. Selected elements of the plain-chant Mass ordinary, in turn, are presented in the modern chant notation of the Liber usualis, providing students with exposure to a different (but widely-used) notational system for this repertory.
Integrated commentary-Excerpts from the text are now integrated into the score anthology at the end of each selection, providing students iwth basic information and a brief discussion of every work.
Improved cross-referencing to text and recordings. Each selection in the anthology opens with a clear cross-reference to the recorded version of the work (disc and track number) and to the discussion of the work within the text with page number. In addition, the score and recordings in the anthology now correspond exactly within their chronological span (Volume I of each through the Baroque Era; Volume II of each since the Classical Era).
Internal trackings keyed to recordings.
