Composers

Below is a selective list of composers of interest to myself plus some general links.

Don't forget the New Grove (now Oxford Music Online)

You will often find that your university library subscribes to Grove Online (Oxford Music Online) and you will have access through the library's online databases.

How do you pronounce that composer's name?
