If you need to know more about music notation, here are some interesting titles to read.
A tutorial introduction to playing Jazz on the piano. One of the first
chapters contains an overview of chords in common use for Jazz music.
A concise, alphabetically ordered list of typesetting and music
(notation) issues, covering most of the normal cases.
A standard work on music notation.
This book is about music engraving, i.e., professional typesetting.
It contains directions on stamping, use of pens and notational
conventions. The sections on reproduction technicalities and history
are also interesting.
This manual specifically focuses on preparing print for publication by
Schirmer. It discusses many details that are not in other, normal
notation books. It also gives a good idea of what is necessary to bring
printouts to publication quality.
This book describes music notation for modern serious music, but starts out with a thorough overview of existing traditional notation practices.
The source archive includes a more elaborate BibTeX bibliography of
over 100 entries in Documentation/bibliography/. It is also
available online from the website.
