Exact Editions

Peer-reviewed journal TEMPO, recently acquired by Wolke Verlag from Cambridge University Press, is now exclusively available for institutional subscriptions via Exact Editions.

TEMPO: The Quarterly Review of New Music features unparalleled coverage of global contemporary music, with in-depth articles, composer portraits, and reviews of premieres, recordings, and books. The magazine's complete archive, of nearly 350 issues, will be available to access with subscriptions. This is more than eighty years of critical commentary and research into experimental music; making the journal an essential resource for music teaching, studying and performance.

Institutions will be able to purchase IP-authenticated and remote access to all back issues, as well as new issues as they are published. Libraries will also have the option to purchase POA (Perpetual and Ongoing Access) via Exact Editions - a unique subscription option which provides institutions with permanent access to all past and future issues of the magazine.
