Useful links
« on: Tuesday 02 March 2010, 17:37 »
Jim Moskowitz pointed me to this survey of requiems

http://www.requiemsurvey.org/

Tobias is compiling his survey of 20th century violin concertos

www.violinconcerto.de

and Alan Ho is compiling his list of piano concertos

http://www.siue.edu/~aho/discography/Discography.pdf

and there are many pages dedicated to the works and lives of unsung composers (+some pretty extensive wikipedia entries for some), perhaps we can start a new main subject just for useful links on the web. Members can also include links to good music sources (Records International, Berkshire Record Outlet, etc..) and good review sites (Music web).

Organization could be a simple as:

Useful Links:
    Music Surveys
    Composer Sites
    Recording sources
    Reviews

and members can just add links to each of the 4 topics above + any others folks can think of. This way useful links will all be gathered in one place and easy to find.

What do you think?

Hi John,

My apologies for the slow reply. I've had this sort of thing in mind for some time and will implement it when I have a little more time than I do now. It seems to me that perhaps the best way to do it is to have a series of single subject lists as you suggest, but compiled by the moderators (Alan and I), from submissions from everyone. That way we can ensure consistency of presentation and avoid duplication. If I've done nothing in a month, give me a wake up call, please!

With that in mind, I've found a website that offers much, including reviews of new unsung releases.  It doesn't appear to have a competitive forum, so I thought I'd post the link here.  Perhaps a way might be found to have our forum posted on the website as a reciprocal link.

Let's see if this works. 

Yup.  It worked.  Just click on the links in the quote.

All of John's links are now actual links that can take you directly to the sites.
