A good reference source is often the best place to begin research when you do not know a great deal about a subject. Oxford Music Online is an essential tool when researching in the performing arts.
Now accessed via the Oxford Music Online gateway, Grove continues to provide online access to the entire content of The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, The New Grove Dictionary of Opera, and The New Grove Dictionary of Jazz. This gateway also provides access to The Oxford Dictionary of Music and The Oxford Companion to Music.
