A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The following computer-generated description may contain errors and does not represent the quality of the book.

The work that is here submitted to the public will no doubt be permitted to claim, being the first of its nature, that indulgent judgment usually extended to initial attempts on hitherto untrodden paths. Notwithstanding all the excellent work published within the last few years, on account of the desire of the ever-increasiog number of the serious friends of music for further knowledge of musical history, there was a want felt of a work that would with pictorial aid meet that demand. The aid of illustrations of important musical documents, c., has therefore been called in to render the comprehension of past periods and the everchanging position of musical art more clear. To effect such a purpose has been the aim of the present work. Neither trouble nor time has been spared in treating this most extensive subject in such a manner that possible omissions through unsuccessful research into important periods might be avoided. Great energy was required to pursue this path, more especially vhen, after the appearance of the first number, six years ago, severe trouble, such as might have effectually paralysed all activity, delayed for a time the regular publication. It will not be denied that the work of the general historian is of much greater responsibility than that of the specialist, who has merely to treat of one composer, school, or period, although no one can be more ready than the author to acknowledge the invaluable nature of the results achieved by such specialists as Winterfeld, Dehn, De Coussemaker, Vander Straeten, Otto Jahn, Bellermann, Thayer, Yon Kchel, Nottebohm, and C.Pohl. There were parts in this work in which all the astuteness of the specialist was required to corroborate the evidence of the historian. For Vol. I.
