Composition

A guide to library resources for composers.

Resources for writing program notes

Guides to writing about music often include suggestions for specific types of music-oriented writing, including how to write program notes.  Indexes to, and compilations of, published program notes can serve as models for how to write program notes for your own compositions.  Below are a few examples of these types of resources in the UO Music Collection, but there are many more on the shelves.
