This collection brings the history of music publishing into the
realm of social history, looking beyond the printing process to
examine why and for whom music publishers produced their work. The
book shows how technological limitations and printers' and
publishers' preferences significantly influenced musical tastes in
Europe from medieval times to the modern age. Contributors are
leading scholars from the United States, Canada, Great Britain, and
Italy. The essays examine the history of music publishing from its
inception to the early twentieth century. The Dissemination of
Music provides new insight into the social history of music,
illustrating how certain types of music were made popular because
publishers made them more available, and how the reputations of
composers were made or broken by the whims of publishers. This
important reference work will interest scholars and students in all
areas of music. Readership: Academics and professionals in the
areas of musicology, history of music, history of publishing, as
well as collectors of rare books.
