Reviews and Awards
"In an age in which writings on music are generally discussed under the rubric 'research activity', it is both refreshing and heart-warming to have The Classics of Music on my desk: a work that has evidently been a labour of love at every step of its creation, from the writing of its constituent texts in the first part of the twentieth century, to their preservation by archivists at Edinburgh University after the author's death in 1940, to its preparation in book form by two generations of scholars."--Music and Letters
