Don Harran, Salamone Rossi: Jewish Musician in Late Renaissance Mantua, Oxford University Press, 1999

The standard scholarly biography of Rossi, by Don Harran, Artur Rubinstein Professor Emeritus of Musicology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, a specialist in Jewish musicians and early Hebrew music historiography. Its strength is that it is the definitive academic treatment of Rossi's life and complete works, in the Oxford Monographs on Music series. Its limit is that this atlas could verify its publisher listing, author credentials and scope directly, but the full text sat behind an access wall not reachable during research, so it is cited here for the fact of sustained, authoritative scholarly attention to Rossi rather than quoted for specific findings.
