Sommario/riassunto

Until now, no reference work has yet appeared on the Bible as it appears in Western music. In TThe Bible in Music: A Dictionary of Songs, Works, and More, scholars Siobhan Dowling Long and John F. A. Sawyer correct this gap in Biblical reference literature, providing for the first time a convenient guide to musical interpretations of the Bible.
