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:
“Syncopations are no indication of light or trashy music, and to shy bricks at “hateful ragtime” no longer passes for musical culture.”
—Scott Joplin (1868–1917)
“In former times and in less complex societies, children could find their way into the adult world by watching workers and perhaps giving them a hand; by lingering at the general store long enough to chat with, and overhear conversations of, adults...; by sharing and participating in the tasks of family and community that were necessary to survival. They were in, and of, the adult world while yet sensing themselves apart as children.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)
