<h2 class="appendix">Appendix A Literature list</h2>
<p>If you need to know more about music notation, here are some
interesting titles to read.
<dl>
<dt><cite>Ignatzek 1995</cite><dd>Klaus Ignatzek, Die Jazzmethode für Klavier. Schott's Söhne
1995. Mainz, Germany ISBN 3-7957-5140-3.
<p>A tutorial introduction to playing Jazz on the piano. One of the first
chapters contains an overview of chords in common use for Jazz music.
<br><dt><cite>Gerou 1996</cite><dd>
Tom Gerou and Linda Lusk, Essential Dictionary of Music
Notation. Alfred Publishing, Van Nuys CA ISBN 0-88284-768-6.
<p>A concise, alphabetically ordered list of typesetting and music
(notation) issues, covering most of the normal cases.
<br><dt><cite>Read 1968</cite><dd>Gardner Read, Music Notation: A Manual of Modern Practice.
Taplinger Publishing, New York (2nd edition).
<p>A standard work on music notation.
<br><dt><cite>Ross 1987</cite><dd>Ted Ross, Teach yourself the art of music engraving and processing.
Hansen House, Miami, Florida 1987.
<p>This book is about music engraving, i.e., professional typesetting.
It contains directions on stamping, use of pens and notational
conventions. The sections on reproduction technicalities and history
are also interesting.

(This book can be ordered from the rental department.)
<p>This manual specifically focuses on preparing print for publication by
Schirmer. It discusses many details that are not in other, normal
notation books. It also gives a good idea of what is necessary to bring
printouts to publication quality.
<br><dt><cite>Stone 1980</cite><dd>
Kurt Stone, Music Notation in the Twentieth Century.
Norton, New York 1980.

practices.
