Willard,

Again, I refer you to Phil Sabin. He has a new book out that posits a

Willard,
Are you acquainted with RILA (Repertoire internationale de la
litterature musical)? It has several decades of abstracts of
musicological studies around the world and may very well contain some
stuff useful to you. Check them out at rilm.org.
