January 19th, 1900, and A pril 4th, 1905, I read before theM usical Association of London five papers dealing with theD evelopment of National Opera in Russia, covering a period from the first performance of Glinka sA Life for the Tsar in 1836, to the production of Rimsky-K orsakov sopera The Tsar sB ride, in 1899. These lectures were illustrated by the following artists :the late Mrs. Henry J. Wood, Miss Grainger Kerr, Mr. Seth Hughes, Mr, Robert Maitland; Sir (M r.) Henry J. Wood and Mr. Richard Epstein at the piano. While using these lectures as the scaffolding of my present book, I have added a considerable amount of new material, amassed during ten years unremitting research into my subject. The additions concern chiefly the earlier phases of Russian music, and the operas that have appeared since 1900.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
