Throughout the ages, people have wanted to sing in a communal
context. This desire apparently stems from a deeply rooted human
instinct. Consequently, choral performance historically has often
been related to human rituals and ceremonies, especially rites of a
religious nature. Historical Dictionary of Choral Music, Second
Edition contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive
bibliography. The dictionary section has more than 1,300
cross-referenced entries on composers, conductors, choral
ensembles, choral genres, and choral repertoire. This book is an
excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to
know more about choral music.
