Things to Read
A
guide to readings available on this site. These are small pieces
about music, literature, publishing, publishing issues, and Torcroft
Press. They are also about other topics which might seem obscure
for a site mostly about music. We are inviting musicians to write
about music and anything else. We feel that musicians have a
particular way of viewing the world because
they are musicians,
and that view should be reflected. We also invite non-musicians
to reflect on music and to write about it. Music is an important
part of the lives of many people, not only musicians. If you'd
like to contribute, send your contribution here. More will be added
from time to time. Meanwhile, there's always something to read
at A Weblog
About Music
Articles posted after 18 April 2005 will be dated (the others would
have been, if we'd thought of it sooner). Pdf files are available for
some items. You can read them first in printable versions, but if
you really want to save a nicer copy, the pdf link can be found at the
top of the appropriate page.
These Items are free for
downloading. If you'd like to make a contribution to the work of
