The Music Library recently received Judith Tick's compilation, Music in the USA: A Documentary Companion, with Paul Beaudoin, assistant editor (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2008). This is a broad collection of source writings on American music from 1540 to 2000. It is illustrated, and its subject range is wide. The compilation begins with a sixteenth-century account of Native American music in present-day New Mexico and ends with Shawn Fanning's (of Napster) testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee.
This book is shelved under call no. MUX ML200 .M89 2008.
