Now in an expanded second edition, this catalogue of art music by Israeli composers includes all the works of the composers listed in the out-of-print first edition of 1988 and the full opus of forty new composers of the younger generation.  Altogether, this second edition presents the entire output of 103 Israeli composers, with detailed information such as the scoring, duration, manuscript and publication data, location of the score and parts, and availability of recordings, for almost 6,000 musical works.  Two extensive indexes classify the compositions by genre and performing forces, and list the authors and sources of all the texts. This comprehensive catalogue provides accurate and up-to-date information on the world of Israeli art music for specialists and non-specialists alike, and remains the only handbook of its kind.
