online research guide:
kalmus-music.com - This is THE page for ordering orchestral parts for the standard concert and operatic repertoire in the public domain. The one thing that is glaringly missing is materials for Turandot. It is unclear when the copyright is runs out. karadar.com/Operas - This is the best page I have found online for opera libretti in original languages. http://www.dlib.indiana.edu/variations/scores/scores.html - Indiana University's online database for opera scores. Includes full scores and piano vocal scores for much of the standard repertory. http://www.operaamerica.org/about/membership/companiesmap.html - This has links to all of Opera America's company members. It includes almost every important opera company in the United States. giornaledellamusica.it - The website for Italy's premiere music journal. It includes information on all types of music. An especially good resource for contemporary Italian composers. http://www.demauroparavia.it/index - Italian only online dictionary. corriere.it and repubblica.it are two of Italy's major newspapers. They often provide a lot of information on the European music scene. toscaninionline.com - A great resource for all things Toscanini. Even includes an "Ask The Maestro" section. |
