Ad Parnassum, a twice-yearly musicological journal, deals exclusively with instrumental music of the 18th and 19th centuries. Launched in 2003, the journal is a prestigious Italian achievement, and a reference point in the international music scene.
Ad Parnassum, which appears each year in April and October, accepts contributions in Italian, English, French, Spanish and German. Each issue includes articles and debates of significant scholarly interest (each article is accompanied by a summary in English), reviews of books relevant to the journal's field of interest, news, biographies of the contributors, a list of books received and an index of names.
Ad Parnassum is also complemented by monographs, the Ad Parnassum Studies.
The founding of a periodical of such cosmopolitan scope as Ad Parnassum has brought together numerous scholars of diverse nationalities. Roberto De Caro (Bologna), editor of the journal, is supported by an editorial committee consisting of musicologists with extensive experience in the specific field - a scholarly committee of great prestige. The journal also calls on the varied expertise of external collaborators.

Every issue has: Book Reviews, News, Contributors, Books Received, Abstracts, Index of Names.
