Usage Notes:

• You can enter search terms into the top two fields (title and artist) to find pieces of music. In the title field you can enter as many words in the title as you know to find pieces of music. If you have no results try being less specific. It tries to do an exact match to the title. If you want to search by keywords you can separate those keywords by commas. For example, entering What shall will bring up results for What Shall We Do With a Drunken Sailor?", but entering what, shall will bring up results for any work with the words what or shall in the title.
• Choosing from any of the droplists will limit the keyword search. Alternately you can simply choose something from the droplist (i.e. if you are looking for Christmas music choose "Christmas" from the list of Genres) with no keywords to see all of the results.
• Search results will contain links which, when clicked on, will run another search on that term. For instance, if you click on the name of a collection in the search results you will be shown all of our holdings from that collection.
• If you cannot find what you are looking for in the database you may use our online request form, and we will look it up for you and tell you if we have it. The online request form is located at http://www.camerata.com/library.html.
• If you click on the title of a work in the search results it will give you a page which you can bookmark with only that result.

Note: Entry of music into the database is underway slowly. Due to a lack of time and funding only a small fraction (approximately 700 pieces of music) of the collection has been entered into the database for searching. This space will be updated with the current status of the database as more information is entered.
