Oxford Music Online: November Updates

Oxford University Press (OUP) has released updates to two of its Oxford Music Online products. New features in the Grove Music Online database focus on contemporary music, and the Encyclopedia of Popular Music has been enhanced with hundreds of new entries.

Grove Music Online
The November update includes new articles on composers as well as major revisions to existing articles. Starting in November, an annual contemporary music update will be released, and one of the three updates each year will be devoted exclusively to keeping Grove current with the newest scholarship on contemporary music and composers.

Encyclopedia of Popular Music
Hundreds of new entries have been added to this resource, including American Idol winner Jordin Sparks; rock and roll royal family members Sharon and Kelly Osbourne; Broadway star Brian Stokes Mitchell; German pop sensation and America's Got Talent judge David Hasselhoff; New Zealand's musical comedy sensation, Flight of the Conchords; the Jonas Brothers; acclaimed cellist Yo-Yo Ma; and television and film score composer Danny Elfman.

To see more of what's new, visit the Oxford Music Online website.
