The book presents a comprehensive biographical dictionary of musicians, aiming for an impartial overview of musical history without favoring any nationality or era. The editor, Theodore Baker, emphasizes the need to highlight the contributions of English and American musicians often overlooked by foreign biographers. This work stands out for its completeness, accuracy, and recentness, dedicating relatively more space to living musicians compared to those whose careers have ended, reflecting the editor's intent to provide a balanced representation of the musical landscape.
