Modern web publishing enables sophisticated presentation of academic arguments, deploying evidence in different formats, using multiple media types, and through interactive user experiences. However, these developments have had little significant effect on the communication of musicology, which largely continues to be published in static and linear forms, and rarely with user interfaces that connect the different forms of supporting material.Our Music Encoding and Linked Data (MELD) framework uses RDF to associate music-related materials via structures afforded by the Music Encoding Initiative (MEI). Here we describe the use of MELD for publishing multimedia musicology articles as web applications in which musically-meaningful relationships are mapped to the interactions a user experiences when moving between digital resources such as text, audio, video, and notation.We motivate our work with an enhanced interactive article studying the performance of works by Frederick Delius, and demonstrate our framework's suitability for this situation by implementing a MELD application integrating TEI text, IIIF-served images, MEI notation and recordings of audio and video. We describe the semantic annotations which underpin this realisation, and how they relate the user experience of moving between this content to the musicological argument being marshalled. Through this example we illustrate how connecting diverse media types using musically-meaningful semantics can support a richer form of publication, beyond the current state of the art.
