Baker's Biographical Dictionary of Musicians : Centennial Edition (9 ed)

Baker's celebrates its 100th anniversary with this new multivolume format.

Unlike past editions that were single-volume works covering primarily classical musicians and performers, this six-volume set covers all musical genres, with new entries written by a distinguished group of area specialists as well as the original articles of Nicolas Slonimsky.

The text offers comprehensive and authoritative information on the musicians, along with evaluations of their contributions to the musical world.
