<h2><a name="intro" id="intro"></a>1. Introduction</h2>
|
|
21 |
<p>
|
|
22 |
This set of resources describes concepts and individuals related to the canon of
|
|
23 |
Western Classical Music. The data has been aggregated and to some extent hand
|
|
24 |
curated by Chris Cannam at Queen Mary University of London.
|
|
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.
