Publications

The editors of MUSA volumes, by engaging with the full spectrum of American musical practice in both written and oral traditions, tackle challenges not commonly addressed by scholarly editions. MUSA's editorial methods not only break new ground but also leverage the strengths of traditional approaches to musical research through the preparation of critically-edited scores. Each MUSA edition commences with a contextual essay that advances scholarly discourse in the field of American music and introduces the musical art of America to a diverse audience, including performers, scholars, and students.
