Terminorum Musicae Index Septem Linguis Redactus

TL;DR — A seven-language dictionary of musical terminology, assembled by the international music-library association.

A terminological index in seven languages — the reference that lets a cataloguer or scholar work across national traditions without mistranslating a term of art.

A monument of unglamorous institutional scholarship: decades of committee work producing something no single author could, used daily by a small profession and invisible to everyone else.
