5. Musical score with composer, in another language, republished

Mozart, W. A. (1970). Die Zauberflöte [The magic flute] [Vocal score]. Becksche Verlagsbuchhandlung. (Original work published 1791)

  • Parenthetical citation:(Mozart, 1791/1970)
  • Narrative citation:Mozart (1791/1970)

  • Provide the composer in the author element of the reference.
  • When the title is in another language than the language of your paper, translate the title into the language of your paper in square brackets. For example, the title of the score is in German and the paper is in English, so the German title is provided in italics and the English translation is provided in square brackets.
  • Specify the type of score in square brackets (e.g., “[Musical score],” “[Piano score],” “[Vocal score],” “[Study score]”).
  • Back-to-back brackets are acceptable in references (see Section 9.21 of the Publication Manual); this commonly occurs in references where the title’s translation is included.
  • For an older score that has been republished, provide the year of the republication in the main date element of the reference. Provide the year of original publication at the end of the reference in parentheses after the words “Original work published.”
  • Both publication years appear in the in-text citation, separated with a slash, with the earlier year first.
