The initial maps and sound examples for this book were created by Sarah Eyerly, Mark Sciuchetti, and Andy Nathan using ArcGIS 10.3 and ArcGIS Online, courtesy of the Florida State University, and Logic Studio. Over time, we will update the content of the website in response to new technologies and new modes of presentation. We would like to express our thanks to the American Council of Learned Societies, the American Musicological Society, the Society for American Music, the Council for Research and Creativity at FSU, and the Lucille P. and Elbert B. Shelfer Professorship in Music for funding the first stage of the development and production of the recordings, maps, and website.
