چکیده
insights might have arisen from such a compehensive index of this, and one that would have taken only the same amount of effort to produce as the composer index. In addition to this, the dust jacket suggests that the book will be useful in enabling us to ‘gauge the trends in twentieth-century British musical life, and the role of the BBC in their promotion.’ This is certainly true, but would it not have been better to include some of this analysis in a slightly expanded introduction? Even a brief count of the number of works by some of Britain’s more prominent composers would have saved the reader from the chore of adding them up from the index. This resource is undeniably useful, but it is also limited. Further, if, as one suspects, the mammoth task of cross-referencing P-as-B records with other sources has not been carried out in a systematic fashion, the text may also be misleading or, on occasion, simply incorrect. Certainly, while answering some specific questions, it raises many more. It will be a valuable scholarly resource for many—but it should be used with caution.

متن کاملA Structural Analysis of Musical Gnostic Prose works with an Emphasis on their Lyrical Contents
Gnostic prose works cover a wide range of subjects, contents, styles, structures, languages, and manners of expression. They might, therefore, be all categorized under one single literary genre. Applying the general term "gnostic prose works" to these oeuvres hinders our understanding of their true nature. Despite that many gnostic prose works belong to Gnosticism, they have special characteris...
متن کاملArtificially intelligent accompaniment using Hidden Markov Models to model musical structure
Background in Music Performance and Accompaniment. Musical accompanists may not always be available during practice, or the available accompanist may not have the technical ability necessary. As a solution to this problem, many musicians practise with pre-recorded accompaniment.
