'Lawson (Royal College of Music, UK) and Stowell (Cardiff Univ., UK) assembled a team of 112 expert contributors, most from British and American universities, and the entries are of uniformly high quality. … The encyclopedia includes many useful musical examples and illustrations, and most of the entries include a brief bibliography of suggested reading. Recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through faculty and professionals.' W. E. Grim, Choice
