Críticas:

Recommended. All levels of student and faculty use. CHOICE A very useful reference work covering the confluence of two art forms--a welcome departure from the usual "program music" approach. College and Research Libraries Each entry is an example of a large amount of data compactly compiled...The book is extremely well laid out...A composer index clearly leads the user to the artist. American Reference Books Annual Anyone sufficiently interested in the wider arts, and wanting to trace influences through available recordings will find this invaluable...This book is impressive in its coverage in terms of artists, composers, geographical spread, timeframe, recorded media (LP, cassette and CD) and musical genres (jazz, punk and rock co-habit cordially with the classical). Musicweb International ...a useful addition to any library with a fine arts collection. Music Reference Services Quarterly, 2005 (vol 9, no 3)

Reseña del editor:

This comprehensive reference book, documents the considerable amount of art-inspired music found on commercial and other mass-produced audio recordings published through 1999. Recording formats included in this survey are long-playing phonograph records (33 1/3 RPM), cassette tapes (7 1/2 IPS), and compact discs. Detailed information is provided to aid in purchasing the recordings or accessing them in library and archive collections. For the purposes of this compilation, "art" is interpreted broadly to include the full range of visual media and all aspects of artist's lives and works. Music has been gathered from classical, jazz, and popular styles, including examples partly inspired by art, music dedicated to artists, works related to incidental writings by artists, compositions inspired by texts about art, and pieces taking their inspiration from artistic movements, genres, museums, or collections. The data is organized into three sections. The first, an alphabetical listing of visual artists, follows each name with relevant composers in alphabetical order, details of their compositions, and a maximum of five recordings each. The second section lists selected miscellaneous and un-attributed works of architecture, glass, mosaic, paintings/prints, sculpture and unclassified media. Finally, an index of composers provides an additional means of locating citations.
