As you prepare your program notes, it may help you to listen to various recordings of the piece you plan to play. This gives you a chance to compare interpretations of the piece, and recordings often are accompanied by program notes of their own (liner notes) for you to consult.
Since many musical works have generic titles, such as concerto, symphony, sonata, etc., narrow your search in Scholar by using a keyword search with specific information.
Example:
Search as keywords: Hindemith sonata violin op 11
This will retrieve scores and sound recordings of Hindemith's Sonata for violin and piano, op. 11, no. 2. The piece may be a score, in an anthology of recorded pieces or one of several pieces on a recording.
