Web Site Review

UCLA Digital Archive of Popular American Music, http://digital.library.ucla.edu/apam/. Created and maintained by the ucla Music Library, Los Angeles, Calif. Reviewed Oct. 27, 2006.

A welcome addition to the list of online sheet music resources, the UCLA Digital Archive of Popular American Music is a work in progress that draws on the university's extraordinary musical collections. Like similar Web sites, it is somewhat hit-or-miss and has its own way of classifying materials, but is nicely designed and notable for the richness of its twentieth-century examples. The most recent sheet music posted when I last visited the site dated from 1966. The University of California, Los Angeles (ucla) music library collection itself is also strong in theatrical music, although I did not find examples I expected to be there. That completely unscientific search aside, the more show music posted in the future, the better. Naturally, copyright considerations restrict what can appear, but even as the site stands now it is essential for anyone working on twentieth-century popular song.
