Additional info/contents Wie schreibt man "Mendelssohn"? Wo teilt man "Beethoven" am Ende einer Zeile? Heißt es "Premiere" oder "Première"? Diese Antworten und vieles mehr finden Sie in dieser komplett überarbeiteten und aktualisierten Ressource für Autoren, Studenten, Redakteure, Konzertorganisatoren - jeden der sich mit klassischer Musik in gedruckter Form befasst. Dieser grundlegende Band umfasst einige der heikelsten Fragen der musikalischen Diskurs: wie man musikalische Werke und Verfahren in Prosa beschreibt, die Regeln für Zitate in Noten und Bibliographien und die richtige Erstellung von Materialien wie musikalische Beispiele, Tabellen und Abbildungen. Ein Abschnitt behandelt Programmansagen, ein weiterer erläutert die Anforderungen für die Einreichung von Manuskripten und elektronischen Dateien. Ein neuer Abschnitt beschreibt Best Practices für studentische Schriftsteller. Ein Anhang listet häufige Problemworte.

How do you spell "Mendelssohn"? Where do you place the hyphen in "Beethoven" if it breaks between two lines? Is it "premiere" or "première"? The answers and much more can be found in this completely revised and updated resource for authors, students, editors, concert producers—anyone who deals with classical music in print. This essential volume covers some of the thorniest issues of musical discourse: how to go about describing musical works and procedures in prose, the rules for citations in notes and bibliography, and proper preparation of such materials as musical examples, tables, and illustrations. One section discusses program notes, another explains the requirements for submitting manuscripts and electronic files. A new section outlines best practices for student writers. An appendix lists common problem words.
