註釋

In this concise dictionary of the 7th ed. of Baker's work (+1934), an extraordinary amount of information has been collected by Nicolas Slonimsky in what has been hailed as "the first and most complete one-volume dictionary" of musical personalities. It's all here: accurate facts, fascinating life histories, and unique critical insights about more than 6,300 great men and women of music, past and present. Now, all are here in expert detail, the lesser-known but still important contributors to the musical life. Ranging in length from a few lives to many pages, the entries offer fascinating life histories and illuminating discussions of musical works and artistic accomplishments - backed by meticulously checked dates of first performance and other essential facts about each artist's works.
