Websites About My Favorite Composers

Copyright 2007 by Ronald B. Standler

I have collected these links from webpages by musicologists or music libraries, as well as by using Google-Deutschland and the american Google search engines.   Most of the websites about a composer also have a page of links to other websites.   The next-to-last entry for each composer is a link to the most recent critical edition of his collected works.   The final entry for each composer is a link to a catalogue of his works.
