William Grant Still: A Bio-Bibliography (Bio-Bibliographies in Music) ReviewCarolyn Quin's biographical sketch is particularly useful. Her compilation of the musical works, major performances, and contemporary critical commentary on them is very valuable. The book is not easy to use, however. Still's musical works are listed alphabetically by title, but there is no chronological list, and the book's index does not include the music, a frustrating omission. There are no running headers, making it hard to spot the titles of works on the page. The list of Still's commercial arrangements, an area of his work that has drawn more attention in recent years, is provisional and incomplete. Dabrishus's bibliography of writings by Still and Verna Arvey (Still's second wife) does not include numerous writings by Arvey that aren't about Still. Despite its shortcomings, this book is essential for researchers on Still. I reviewed this book for *College Music Symposium* almost ten years ago; my opinion hasn't changed. Like most Greenwood titles, it's overpriced, now $20 over the original list.William Grant Still: A Bio-Bibliography (Bio-Bibliographies in Music) Overview
