-
This dictionary is intended to fill the lacuna of musical terms in Spanish, serving as an extensive compilation of Spanish and English terms. This reference work would be useful to any Spanish-speaking musician, to researchers of Spanish musical works, and to musicians performing Spanish music.
-
The author does not exactly specify how he went about gathering the information for this source, but this dictionary includes 18,628 entries total. Of these, 12,534 are English-Spanish translations and 6,094 are Spanish-English translations. The difference in numbers results from English grammar rules and the order of nouns and adjectives. The terms themselves cover a wide variety of musical genres.
-
The dictionary begins with an introduction followed by a section explaining use of the dictionary, carefully describing each type of notation used in the entries. This section is followed by a list of abbreviations used throughout the work. The main body follows, divided into two parts: a Spanish-English listing of entries and the English-Spanish translation, both listing entries in alphabetical order. For each term, these entries include the translation as well as the variants of that term and their translations.
