Authors preparing manuscripts for consideration should follow The Chicago Manual of Style, 15th edition. In particular:
(1) except for foreign-language quotations, manuscripts must be in English;
(2) all material must be neat and double-spaced, with adequate margins;
(3) notes must be grouped together at the end of the manuscript, not as footnotes at page bottoms, following either of the two documentation styles in chapters 16 and 17 of The Chicago Manual of Style, 15th edition;
(4) authors should append a two- or three-sentence biographical note;
(5) text must be in Microsoft Word;
(6) music examples, complex tables, photographs, and other graphics should be submitted as separate computer image files, not embedded in the Microsoft Word file;
(7) image files must be presentable for publication; authors should take into account that each image and its caption have to fit within a page frame of 4 X 6 inches (10.5 X 16 cm); captions (including the example number, when applicable) should be included within the text, not in the image file;
(8) if a submission accepted for publication includes music examples transcribed from recordings, the author may be required to send in a CD of the recordings to facilitate editing the paper and checking the accuracy of transcriptions.
(9) authors alone are responsible for the contents of their articles and for obtaining premission for use of material under copyright protection.
