Hours of informative browsing awaits. * AUSTA National Journal * Veteran piano pedagogues Hinson and Roberts have collaborated again for the third edition of the volume, which has been expanded and updated to include over 3,200 compositions by more than 1,600 composers. What Bennet Ludden noted in his review of the first edition still rings true for this edition: the volume continues to serve as the major compendium of information about chamber music that involves piano as an equal partner. . . . The volume serves as a comprehensive reference resource for researching chamber music repertoire featuring the piano and will serve as a valuable resource for pianists, pedagogues, and libraries for years to come. -- Treshani Perera * Music Reference Services Quarterly *
