A bibliography of Australian colonial music part 3 - 2001 to 2022

Graeme Skinner (University of Sydney), "A bibliography of Australian colonial music part 3 - 2001 to 2022", Australharmony (an online resource toward the early history of music in colonial Australia): https://sydney.edu.au/paradisec/australharmony/bibliography-2001-present.php; accessed 9 June 2026

Bibliographic notes:

This resource has the dual purpose of listing materials of general relevance to Australian colonial music, and of serving as a bibliography for the other pages of this site.

Many of the earlier works cited, and some of the later ones, make only isolated references to music and musical practice. However, such scarce references are musically and historically important enough not merely to warrant, but to demand, their inclusion in any comprehensive bibliography of Australian music.

Because of the latter, some items make only occasional or no direct reference to Australian music, but are nevertheless of general relevance to the subject and the site.

Entries are arranged chronologically by year, then alphabetically by author (or where no clear author, other identifier).

Entries are formatted for ease of reuse in footnotes and endnotes.

Bibliographic data appears in black type; reviews are listed, and notes and comments given in lighter type; and occasionally key extracts from the texts themselves are given in yellow-ochre type.

Most entries also have live links to corresponding bibliographic record in TROVE or another relevant site (e.g. WorldCat).

Where a work is digitised and freely available online, live persistent links are given (where possible https).

Where a full-colour digitised version is available (e.g. at ) it is listed above black-and-white versions (e.g. at ).

Persistent links are also given to some digitised works with restricted or paid access (e.g. journal articles in JSTOR).

As a general rule, colonial music scores, modern editions of musical works, and recordings are not included here. Many of these, however, have been specially tagged as "Australian colonial music" within TROVE, and may be found by searching (for instance, by decade or year of publication) at

Curated websites are not generally listed; however, many resources currently available only in solid state digitised form are listed.

Not yet included here are many items of more particular interest (e.g. to individual musical works, individuals or institutions) listed elsewhere in the site's checklists and registers.

All major works of general Australian history have been, or will be, listed; for the colonial period (part 1), where possible every separate edition is given its own entry and the relationship between editions noted.

For the colonial period (part 1), most newspaper articles referred to elsewhere in the site are not also inculded here. However, key articles that are specifically historical, discursvive, or of wider and general relevance, will be progressively added. Many of these, meanwhile, may be found among specially tagged 19th-century items at

For the post-1900 period (part 2), newspaper articles of special or general relevance to colonial music will be progressively added. Many of these, meanwhile, may be found among specially tagged 20th- and 21st-century items at

In addition, any other books, journal articles, pictures, and musical works tagged by Australharmony inside TROVE may be viewed under the public tag
