You can search all of Consort by going to "Advanced Search".
Under Sound Recordings, choose Music CDs only.
In the search field you can type in a genre of music (i.e. jazz, bluegrass, rap) or type (orchestral, sonata, concerto, etc) as the subject. You can also search by author (Beethoven, Jay-Z, Adele) or title (Lion King, Lungs, Death of a Pop Star).
You can also limit the time frame in the bottom left of the search page - which is helpful if you want to find something from a particular year or decade.
Many of our CDs have the individual titles listed, so you can also try searching for a particular song or piece of music as a keyword (blue danube, when doves cry, rolling in the deep, beethoven op. 67).
