Introduction to Music provides readers with a survey of the world of music as a means by which to enjoy it more fully. Rather than bog students down with 500-700 pages of text and 400 composers, this approach sticks to the essentials. Simultaneously, it provides further study resources for students who would like to go further in depth. It integrates links to audio and view examples directly in the eText to even further streamline the student experience.

Glossary
Introduction to the Music Industry by Robert Willey is an excellent publication, which could be used for both an introductory "Music Business I" course as well as the second semester course. I especially like the resources shared and the sections called "For Further Investigation" and "Do It Yourself" which appear at the end of the chapters. These sections offer ideas for projects and further research!
