Répertoire
International des Sources Musicales (International
Inventory of Musical Sources) -- represents a worldwide
effort to identify and describe sources of music and
writings about music from the earliest times through
ca. 1850. The RISM Home Page is a joint production
of the RISM Zentralredaktion at Frankfurt/Main, Germany,
and the U.S. RISM Office at Harvard University Cambridge,
Massachusetts, U.S.A.
The
American Institute of Musicology, founded by Armen
Carapetyan, published its first volume in 1947. Since
then the enterprise has developed into probably the
most extensive and important academic series on music
ranging from the Middle Ages to the early Baroque.
So far more than 600 volumes of music and theoretical/historical
texts have been printed, covering the period from
Guido of Arezzo to Jean Philippe Rameau, no less than
seven centuries.
