For music appreciation and research, ideally you would have complete and integrated access to every possible related resource. Besides listening to the music itself, you would want to:

• Look at the scores, sheet music, and lyrics;


• Watch a performance;


• See related resources, such as liner notes, artwork, and reviews;


• Explore all available reference works, including encyclopedias, biographies, and discographies;


• Read scholarly analyses, discussions, essays, and critiques;


• Link to related Web resources;
• Compare performances of the same piece, by multiple performers or ensembles;
  
• And find associated ephemera such as letters, memoirs, and diaries.

Alexander Street’s Music Online lets you do just that, through a collection of resources that work either alone or together through the unified search interface. Bring one or more of the collections into your library, and have immediate, integrated access to all, including links from the reference directly to the online music tracks from the Alexander Street online listening databases in your library.
