Music Collection
With 30 titles, this collection makes a significant contribution to music scholarship and covers a broad range of music history, theory, and scholarship. Topics address many areas of musicology or music theory, including historical performance, interpretive traditions, analysis and performance, history of theory, speculative theory, American music and its many strands, social, anthropological, aesthetic, and critical contexts that have impinged on composing, music-making, and listening in various places and times.

Library and institutional members are banded according to their size, in line with the Carnegie Classification and as recognised by Lyrasis. Based on this, our annual membership fees for a Single Package are:
| Tier | 2026 | 2027 | 2028 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Associate’s Colleges | CRKN Bands 1–5 | UK and European small | $750 / £520 | $770 / £535 | $790 / £550 |

Membership is for a minimum of three years.
Shown in table are annual fees in USD (US Dollars, $) / GBP (Pound Sterling, £), excluding VAT.
Due to rising publication costs, a 2.5% annual increase has been applied for annual payments. The slight annual rise in membership fees reflects rising inflation rates alongside rising production costs for publishers globally. This enables us to continue to use membership revenue solely to produce new OA monographs, moving towards an affordable, sustainable model for the future of academic publishing. And while the rises are around 2.5%, in real terms they are no more than a rise of around $20 to $80 a year.
If you would like to prepay your entire 3 year subscription, please let us know. The 3 year prepayment option benefits from a fixed annual price with no price increase during the 3-year term.
Sign up for libraries will be facilitated by Lyrasis soon. In the meantime you can pledge your support via our simple sign up form using the button below, or you can simply email them on membersupport@lyrasis.org.
