About Grove Music Online:
The New Grove
is a widely acclaimed, indispensable resource and a classic reference work.
For the 2001 Second Edition, every one of the first edition's
22,500 articles was reviewed and revised, with thousands of articles expanded.
Previously neglected or under-represented areas were examined, explored,
and explained. Movements and topics once deemed too controversial or too far
from the mainstream were been added. And throughout, 6,500 new articles cover
more than 5,000 years of music history, instruments, composers, institutions,
performers, genres, and more.
The New Grove takes you beyond the customary and familiar into
new worlds with extensive, authoritative contributions on non-Western music.
From major influences, such as Latin American music, to less-examined contributions,
such as Asian, sub-Saharan African, and Pacific Islander,
The New Grove presents the music, theory, instruments, and musicians
that have helped to define music around the world.
- 29,000+ articles and 6,000+ contributors from 98 countries
- 20,000+ biographies
- Coverage of new schools of thought within musicology, such as feminism and gay and lesbian music
- Increased coverage of jazz and popular music
