HKU Libraries Blog

The Libraries is promoting featured resources, such as subject-specific databases or digitized collections which may be suitable for research and study, on a monthly basis. The database of this month is about music.

Music Online: Classical Scores Library
(http://find.lib.hku.hk/record=HKU_IZ61605864520003414) is a series of four volumes with a mission to provide a reliable and authoritative source for scores of the classical canon, as well as a resource for the discovery of lesser-known contemporary works. The collections encompass all major classical musical genres and time periods from the Middle Ages to the 21st century. With full, study, piano, and vocal scores, this comprehensive collection will enhance the study of music history, performance, composition and theory for a variety of scholars.

Music Library has created an instructional video to introduce the new database. Please watch it at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YMYETpFX70.
