Click any of the letters above to travel to the page containing all the definitions for the corresponding letter.
Almost all of the definitions are very short and to the point as this online dictionary is supposed to be used to give you an idea to what the part is asking or what percussion instrument you are supposed to play. If you would like to get a more elaborate definition I would suggest going to dictionary.com or purchasing the books The Harvard Dictionary of Music by Don Michael Randel, Pocket Music Dictionary by Hal Leonard, The American Heritage Dictionary, or The Harvard Biographical Dictionary of Music by Don Michael Randel for great biographical information. And one of the greatest source for everything music related: Grove Music Online
NOTE:
If I have written down the wrong definition/translation or misspelled a word please contact me and I will fix it. If you are looking for a definition and cannot find it I suggest looking in the materials provided above or contacting me and I will see if I can provide the correct definition. Some of the definitions are jokes, they're very obvious so don't think too hard when you come across one ;)
