The Musical America Directory is published annually by the publishers of
Musical America magazine. To find it, go to a bookstore or newsstand,
get a copy of the magazine, and in it you should find an order form for
the directory. This is a *very* valuable resource for musicians, but,
unfortunately, it is quite expensive. The number that sticks in my mind
is $80.00, but it could be a little more, or less.

An alternative might be to go to a good University library or music
library. Many of them routinely carry the Directory.

Hope this is the information you need.
