Garland Encyclopedia of World Music

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Garland Encyclopedia of World Music is an academic reference work. It was initiated by editors at Garland Publishing in 1988 as a 10-volume series of encyclopedias of world music. The final volumes appeared in 2001, but editions have since been updated. It is widely regarded as an authoritative academic source for ethnomusicology.[1] It is published by Routledge, which, like Garland Science, is now part of Taylor & Francis Group.
