A reference tool containing varied information relating to research in music, the Sourcebook will serve as a classroom text and as a resource for individual music researchers, librarians, faculty members, students, performing and teaching musicians, and musical amateurs.Crabtree, Phillip D. is the author of 'Sourcebook for Research in Music' with ISBN 9780253314765 and ISBN 0253314763.
