Blake Set to Music: A Bibliography of Musical Settings of the Poems and Prose of William Blake by Donald Fitch offers an extensive and meticulously compiled reference work detailing the musical interpretations of William Blake’s poetry. What began as a casual search in 1976 to fulfill a request for Blake settings for male chorus soon turned into a comprehensive project, revealing a surprising gap in musical bibliography. While Shakespeare and other poets had well-documented musical settings, Blake's work had no such resource until now. Fitch's research uncovers a fascinating trend: the use of Blake’s poetry in musical compositions is largely a 20th-century phenomenon, though it has roots in the late 19th century. From Blake himself reportedly singing his poems to original tunes, to early settings by musicians like Mary Carmichael in 1876, Fitch traces how Blake’s works captured the imagination of composers. The bibliography spans amateur and professional musicians, encompassing settings for solo voice, choirs, chamber ensembles, and orchestras. The book highlights over 250 musical settings of Blake's "The Lamb," making it the most popular choice among composers, while other well-loved poems like "The Tyger" and "Spring" also appear frequently. Interestingly, it also explores Blake’s influence beyond the English-speaking world, particularly in post-World War II compositions by Scandinavian, Russian, and European composers. Fitch’s bibliography not only provides a rich resource for scholars, musicians, and Blake enthusiasts but also charts a cultural shift. As musical tastes evolved, so too did the appreciation for Blake’s poetic depth, with his works being embraced by an ever-widening range of composers across the globe. This bibliography stands as an essential guide to the diverse and evolving relationship between Blake’s visionary poetry and the world of music. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1990.

Throughout the western classical tradition, composers have influenced and been influenced by their students and teachers. Many musicians frequently add to their personal acclaim by naming their teachers and the lineage through which they were taught. Until now, the relationships between composers have remained uncataloged and understudied, but with enough research, it is possible to document entire schools of composition. Composer Genealogies: A Compendium of Composers, Their Teachers, and Their Students is the first volume to gather the genealogies of more than seventeen thousand classical composers in a single volume. Functioning as its own fully cross-referenced index, this volume lists composers and their dates, followed by their teachers and notable students. A short introduction presents the parameters by which composers were selected and provides a survey of the literature available for further study. Gathering records and information from reference books, university websites, obituaries, articles, composers’ websites, and even direct contact with some composers, Pfitzinger creates a valuable resource for music researchers, composers, and performers.

Solo Vocal Works on Jewish Themes: A Bibliography of Jewish Composers is a comprehensive and annotated compendium of stage, concert, and liturgical compositions written by Jewish composers from every known time period and country. Kenneth Jaffe has amassed nearly 3,000 large-scale musical works for solo voice(s) on Jewish themes, written by Jewish composers. The works include over 400 cantatas, 150 oratorios, almost 300 operas, more than 100 sacred services, 20 symphonies, and more than 350 stage works, including Yiddish theatre, Purim and sacred plays, multi-media pieces, and musical theatre. In addition, original song cycles and liturgical services arranged for a modest to large complement of instruments are also included. The works are organized by composer and subdivided by genre, and each entry is fully annotated, detailing the title, opus, voicing and instrumentation, text source, commission, year completed, year and location of the premiere, the year of publication and the publisher (if any), the location of scores, and the duration of the work. The works are then broken down by theme, such as Biblical themes, works for children, works of the Holocaust or Jewish suffering and persecution, interfaith works, and wedding music. They are then cross-referenced by voice type, arrangement, and by title. A list of libraries and publishing houses of Jewish music rounds out this invaluable reference.
