Chicago style citations for music

Chicago style for music: three things you need to know:

  1. Chicago style has two different styles within it: Humanities (also called Notes/Bibliography) and Author-Date
  2. Do not choose Author-Date. It's easy to spot because it's written with the date immediately following the author.
  3. Look for the option called Chicago-Humanities, Chicago-Notes/Bibliography, or Turabian. These should all be the same thing.
