Présentation de l'éditeur

Reference MUSICAL Library. THE publication of this important book makes manifest to us the full measure of the loss we~~nave sustained by the death of the author who, by common consent, was placed first among those who devote themselves to the study of musical instruments. In no work from his pen have we had such ripe fruit, in a province now recognised as a foundation of a general and philosophical systemisation of the art, as in this masterpiece of erudition and sound judgment. With the deductions suggested by what is at present known as the scientific basis of music Engel had little or nothing to do. He spent his valuable life in continual observation and much reading, the outcome of which we may some day expect to gain in the four large volumes left by him in manuscript, with complete illustrations of all the known musical instruments in the world. When this magnum opus appears, the present view of the subject by which allE astern and the so-called ethnological music is bro~ ght into relation with our major and minor scales will be exhaustively satisfied. The dawn of another view of tl.e subject affecting our conception of it may be imminent, but Carl Engel sdescriptions and con the origin of bowed instrument; notice in this essay all the deep reasoning identified withE ngel sy. once attacks the root of the arg 1.. believe was gradually developed i twanged their lyres.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
