Greetings:

  Here are a few additions to the booklist:

    The Music Machine: Selected Readings from Computer Music Journal,
ed. Curtis Roads, MIT Press 1989, ISBN 0-262-18131-2

    FM Theory & Applications, by John Chowning and David Bristow, Yamaha
Music Corporation 1986, ISBN 4-636-17482-8

    Foundations of Computer Music, ed. Curtis Roads and John Strawn, MIT
Press 1987, ISBN 0-262-68051-3

    Current Directions in Computer Music Research, ed. Max Mathews and
John Pierce, MIT Press 1989, ISBN 0-262-13241-9

    Introduction To Computer Music, by Wayne Bateman, Wiley & Sons 1980,
ISBN 0-471-86839-6

    There are also some interesting books by composer Phil Winsor, but I
don't have the info available right now. They are more oriented towards
composition algorithms than synthesis, as is Jaxitron's unique
"Cybernetic Music".

    Max Mathews' "Technology Of Computer Music" is a good read for very
basic descriptions of Csound's MusicV heritage. Sorry, I don't own a
copy and have no other information on it.

    If you're thinking of purchasing Charles Dodge's "Computer Music",
be sure you get the 2nd edition (1997) on Schirmer. Also, note that F.R.
Moore's "Elements Of Computer Music" (1990), good as it is, is loaded
with typos and other errors. An errata list was once available on the
Internet, but I don't know anything of its provenance nowadays. The
errors may have been corrected in the latest editions, but at $64 I
won't be finding out soon. Highly recommended though...
