with a repertoire ranging from baroque to the avant-garde Baroque - NO to article, YES to capitalization; avantgarde - NO to capitalization Explanation: You can capitalize the latter (some people do), but there's really no need to. Thus: ... from Baroque to the avant-garde -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 18 mins (2008-02-19 05:19:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- By the way, a good way of going about this is Googling the terms in question and checking out their usage (looking at reliable sources, of course). If you do that here, you'll notice that Baroque is always capped, while avant-garde isn't when used mid-sentence, etc. |

with a repertoire ranging from baroque to the avant-garde with a repertoire ranging from baroque to avant-garde Explanation: based on what I found: baroque can be found in small caps too (musical sources). I also suggest to omit "the" for both (as in "baroque to avant-garde") baroque http://www.ashmontmusic.com/mccarty/auditions.html for avant-garde: http://www.classical-piano.com/ |
