Provides practical information on the musical events, resources, and places of interest in Belgium, Luxembourg, Holland, and Switzerland, that would assist a musician (whether researcher, student, or tourist) in organizing their travels to Europe. Examples of information that might be included are concert halls, libraries, museums, conservatories, musical landmarks, organizations, festivals, competitions, periodicals, and other miscellaneous.

The book is divided into sections on Belgium, Luxembourg, Holland, and Switzerland. Major cities are then given their own sections, in alphabetical order, with smaller cities being grouped into a general category at the end of each country. For most cities, the following categories are covered: Opera Houses and Concert Halls, Libraries and Museums, Conservatories and Schools, Musical Landmarks, Musical Organizations, Miscellaneous, Business of Music, Festivals and Competitions, and Periodicals. Information varies for each city but the authors try to include the most valuable and pertinent information for visitors.
