Chris@10 21 <p>
Chris@10 22 This set of resources describes concepts and individuals related to the canon of
Chris@10 23 Western Classical Music. The data has been aggregated and to some extent hand
Chris@10 24 curated by Chris Cannam at Queen Mary University of London.
Chris@10 25 This collection of knowledge includes information about composers, compositions, performers, relationships of influence, and other data. The intention is to provide a <a href="http://linkeddata.org" target="_blank">Linked Data</a> resource that provides many references to existing information sources. <p>Currently the composer data is expected to be reasonably reliable, but the other data in this dataset is likely to be highly provisional, unreliable, and subject to change.
