MY VOCAL MUSIC COLLECTION

 

Following are lists, of varied lengths, which represent my collections of classical, semi-classical, and popular music.  Any comments or corrections will be appreciated.  You may e-mail me at  wclaytex@aol.com.

PLEASE NOTE: immediately under Wagner Operas is a link to various books about music which I have found very helpful. 

A database comment:  the organizing of my collection has been due totally to a splendid item called ClassiCat.  The gentleman who designed and sells it is most helpful to its purchasers.  It contains well over 17,000 composers and titles which require merely clicking to add a recording, and his program offers many options for labeling and accessing composers, titles, and performers.  He is in the process of revising and improving it, and I think that you will find it most helpful in organizing your holdings.  In making this suggestion, I disavow any personal profit; I merely like to see worthy people and products receive due credit.  You may contact him at timd@tdware.com   for a trial demonstration.
