The Musical Times is an academic journal of classical music edited and produced in the United Kingdom and currently the oldest such journal still being published in that country. Originally, published as The Musical Times and Singing Class Circular from 1844 until 1903, its title was shortened to its present name. The journal originally appeared monthly but is now a quarterly publication. It is also available online at JSTOR.
Past editors include Stanley Sadie (1967–1987) and Eric Wen.
Famous quotes containing the words musical and/or times:
“Sometimes a musical phrase would perfectly sum up
The mood of a moment. One of those lovelorn sonatas
For wind instruments was riding past on a solemn white horse.
Everybody wondered who the new arrival was.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“The seasick passenger on an ocean liner detests the good sailor who stalks past him 265 times a day grandly smoking a large, greasy cigar. In precisely the same way the democrat hates the man who is having a better time in the world. This is the origin of democracy. It is also the origin of Puritanism.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
