Cataloging beyond the Notes: Annotating Bibliographic Records for Music Effectively in RDA
In Cataloging beyond the Notes: Annotating Bibliographic Records for Music Effectively in RDA, authors Ralph Hartsock and Peter Lisius present examples illustrating the effective use of notes in the description of music, and this is especially important with RDA. Since RDA has increased granularity in the description of music, whether in score, recording, video, or data formats, the expert direction offered in Cataloging beyond the Notes makes it a key reference for music cataloging. Bibliographic records are presented using MARC21. An essential resource for practicing music catalogers, Cataloging beyond the Notes begins with a comprehensive introduction, including instructions on how to use...
Managing Institutional Recordings
Institutional recordings represent a significant portion of the scholarly output of academic music schools and departments. Audio and video recordings of faculty recitals, student recitals, ensembles, and guest artists provide a unique record of musical life in an academic environment. Libraries have often been responsible for describing, preserving, and providing access to these valuable collections. Managing Institutional Recordings brings together a variety of articles on different aspects of collecting and managing institutional recording collections. This compilation of essays and case studies, written by known experts in the field, explores solutions to managing collections in a variety of institutions across North America. Topics include planning, managing, cataloging, preservation, and legal aspects of collections. As a unique exploration of the topic, Managing Institutional Recordings will provide readers with resources and guidance on their own institutional recording collections.
Ferruccio Busoni and His Legacy
An analysis of the composer’s unconventional teaching style and philosophy, his relationship with his students, and his effect on twentieth century music. Many students of renowned composer, conductor, and teacher Ferruccio Busoni had illustrious careers of their own, yet the extent to which their mentor’s influence helped shape their success was largely unexplored until now. Through rich archival research including correspondence, essays, and scores, Erinn E. Knyt presents an evocative account of Busoni’s idiosyncratic pedagogy—focused on aesthetic ideals rather than methodologies or techniques—and how this teaching style and philosophy can be seen and heard in the Nordic-inspired...
Teachers in the Movies
The teaching profession has a long history in motion pictures. As early as the late 19th century, films have portrayed educators of young children—including teachers, tutors, day care workers, nannies, governesses, and other related occupations—in a variety of roles within the cinematic classroom. This work provides a broad index of more than 800 films (both U.S. and foreign) which feature educators as primary characters. Organized alphabetically by title, each entry contains a short plot summary and many also include cast and crew details. A detailed subject index is also included.

Offering theories amid legal and ethical concerns of electronic records and resource management, this publication is essential for professionals involved in the education of library and information science and the training of individuals responsible for electronic records management in various disciplines.
Musical Migration and Imperial New York
"Through archival work and storytelling synthesis, Music Migration and Imperial New York revises, subverts, and supplements many inherited narratives about experimental music and arts in postwar New York into a sweeping new whole. From the urban street-level via music clubs and arts institutions to the world-making routes of global migration and exchange, this book seeks to redraw the geographies of experimental art and so to reveal the imperial dynamics, as well as profoundly racialized and gendered power relations, that shaped and continue to shape the discourses and practices of modern music in the United States. Beginning with the material conditions of power that structured the cityscape of New York in the early Cold War years (ca. 1957 to 1963), Brigid Cohen's book encompasses a considerably wider range of people and practices than is usual in studies of the music of this period. It looks at a range of artistic practices (concert music, electronic music, jazz, performance art) and actors (Varèse, Mingus, Yoko Ono, and Fluxus founder George Maciunas) as they experimented with new modes of creativity"--
