theoretical writings on music. Since its founding, the Institute has
published more than 650 scholarly volumes including the yearbook

treatises. The scholarly editions include the complete works of major
composers who lived up until the seventeenth century, composers such as
Machaut, La Rue, Dufay, Willaert, Clemens, Rore, Compère, Crecquillon,
Romero, and others. (See CMM for sacred and secular music and CEKM for
keyboard music). Significant research findings resulting from the
edition-making efforts are published in the series MSD. Published
treatises include the works of influential writers from Guido of Arezzo to
Jean Philippe Rameau. (See CSM and MISC). Significant collections of
papers appear in MISC. Reference works are published in the series RMS.
