Abstract

Amongst the most consistently interesting publications appearing in print from Cambridge University Press in 2015 is Friedemann Sallis’ volume, Music Sketches. The author, who earned his doctoral degree under the guidance of Carl Dahlhaus in Berlin, is now Associate Professor at the Music Department of the University of Calgary, Canada. Sallis himself admits to having needed eight years to complete his latest work, despite its focus on one of his strongest areas of expertise: referencing source material.
