Reviews

Published approximately a decade after the first edition, this second edition of Jaffé's Historical Dictionary of Russian Music, like its predecessor, is a remarkable reference work for students, scholars, and music enthusiasts. The new edition fills gaps left by the first; includes more complete entries; expands coverage on folk music, publications, and schools of music; and updates the chronology, list of acronyms, and bibliography.... The bibliography, which begins with a four-page introduction that offers an insightful historiography on the scholarship on Russian music, is greatly expanded: the first edition featured 68 pages and approximately 500 entries; the second edition is 81 pages with about 600 entries. The bibliography is a fantastic resource for research, especially because of its topical organization and comprehensiveness. This new edition updates and replaces the first. Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty.
