  12. Effectively intractable questions • Which scribes have created manuscripts of a composer’s works, and which other composers’ works have they inscribed? • Which poets have had their poems set to music by Schubert, which of these musical settings were only published posthumously, and where can I find recordings of them? • Which electroacoustic works were published within five years of their premier?

  13. Generating Metadata: Grove Works Lists

  14. Our Tool for the Works Lists

  15. Immyns Example

  16. Initial testing and evaluation took place during April-May 2009 • Integration: ‘All the information showed up very quickly, and it was easy to find material. It was really good to have different kinds of material in the same place.’ • Changing search paradigm: ‘I would recommend musicSpace for its ability to manipulate queries in order to get results that you wouldn’t otherwise be able to get [without starting over].’ • Granularity: ‘I used musicSpace to explore how many operas have a character named Alceste. This information simply isn’t get-at-able using other search interfaces – you’d have to sort through the information by hand.’

  17. Future Deployment? • Grove Music Online (Oxford University Press)
