Description

This bio-bibliography catalogs more than 300 musical compositions of the prolific American composer, Daniel Pinkham. The compositions reflect Pinkham's success at securing commissions from a variety of individuals and organizations, and span his entire career to date as composer, performer, and teacher. The volume commences with a biography, and then supplies a complete catalog of works and a selected listing of performances. A discography of commercially produced recordings follows, with numbers corresponding to those in the previous sections. The final section is a bibliography, which is divided into two parts. The first part lists references to general reviews of Pinkham's work or reviews of more than one composition; the second part consists of reviews of specific pieces. As before, the pieces are cross-referenced to the preceding sections. The volume concludes with four appendixes: a list of works arranged chronologically by date of composition; an alphabetical list of works; the literary texts used in the works, listed by author; and biblical sources of the texts.
