 Répertoire International des Sources Musicales

The *Répertoire International des Sources Musicales* (RISM) is an international project dedicated to documenting musical sources. It aims to create a comprehensive inventory of music manuscripts, printed music, and other related materials from different periods and regions, focusing on Western music traditions. Founded in 1952, RISM is particularly valuable for musicologists, researchers, and librarians as it provides bibliographic information about musical works and their sources. This includes details on manuscript collections, printed editions, and archival holdings.
