Présentation de l'éditeur

Preface In a graded course of instruction in music practical skill should be supplemented by a corresponding amount of theoretical knowledge in order that the full educational value of the art may be realized. That portion of the theory of music contained in this volume relates almost exclusively to the elements and notation of vocal music. I ts compilation was prompted by the apparent need of uniformity among teachers and pupils in defining, describing, and explaining the common elementary effects, terms, and characters occurring in school music. While Grove sD ictionary of Music and Musicians has been the standard followed by the author, many other reliable works have also been consulted, a partial list of which is given at the end of the book. The general plan of Elements and Notation of Music is similar to that of Rudiments of Music, by W. H. Cummings, London. To that writer belongs the credit for the idea herein developed, that notes represent duration only, .e, time, while pitch is represented by the lines and spaces of the staff.

Présentation de l'éditeur

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.
