I have found three: McGill, RWC, Iowa. Are there any others? And does anyone know if RWC separates vibrato and non vibrato pieces? McGill US$50 Clearly describes recording methods Variety of styles (loudness, vibrato, etc.) but does not appear to be an exhaustive corpus Does not differentiate different instruments, performers, (near as I can tell) 2 DVDs RWC US$150 Designed for research Differentiates performers, (3), instrument manufacturer, Loudness, (3 levels). Differentiates vibrato and non vibrato? Huge - 12 DVDs Iowa Free Online Variety of instruments Has some vibrato/non vibrato pieces of the same instrument. Does not differentiate different instruments, performers. Loudness (3 levels) Jerry Gregoire ------_=_NextPart_001_01C55A66.2C7AF2CA Content-Type: text/html <html> <head> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=us-ascii"> <meta name=Generator content="Microsoft Word 10 (filtered)"> <style> <!-- /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman";} a:link, span.MsoHyperlink {color:blue; text-decoration:underline;} a:visited, span.MsoHyperlinkFollowed {color:purple; text-decoration:underline;} span.EmailStyle17 {font-family:Arial; color:windowtext;} (at)page Section1 {size:8.5in 11.0in; margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} --> </style> </head> <body lang=EN-US link=blue vlink=purple> <div class=Section1> <p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'>Dear List</span></font></p> <p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'> </span></font></p> <p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'>I am looking for available databases of instruments to use in research.</span></font></p> <p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'> </span></font></p> <p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Arial'>I have found three: McGill, RWC, </span></font><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Iowa</span></font><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>.
