On the GMD web archive you'll find a 'stand alone' copy
(ftp://ftp.gmd.de/music/lists/glossary/glossary.ps) of a musical terms
glossary which is part of the documentation for the GNU typesetting
utility Lilypond (http://www.cs.uu.nl/~hanwen/lilypond/). One of the
sources of this electronic glossary is a two volume 'Polyglottes
W�rterbuch der musikalisch Terminologie' published by the International
Society of Musicology (B�renreiter Verlag, Kassel 1980).
