Database for Italian Music Theory and Aesthetics

I am pleased to announce the inauguration of the saggi musicali
italiani Database for Italian Music Theory and Aesthetics. saggi
musicali italiani (SMI) makes available in electronic form major
musical treatises and significant journal articles written in
Italian. As of now, the SMI includes only selected nineteenth-century
texts, but it will eventually feature all printed materials from the
Renaissance to the present. This database intends to make it possible
to download, browse, and search documents pertaining to this field,
taking as its model the Thesaurus Musicarum Latinarum, which has
already become an indispensable tool for scholars of Medieval and
Renaissance music theory.

In order to use the SMI, you should first subscribe by sending this
