Descripción del artículo del vendedor

165 pages. The book has been rebound and has new paste downs and end papers. The boards are unevenly faded and chipped at the edges, there is very intermittent foxing throughout the book; from page 275 to page 237 the pages jut out at the tail and the the outer edge and neatly handwritten at the head of the Publishers' advertisement Germany Home of Music, Italy land of song. Land and onsg neatly underlined as is the line in the advert. also stating that Germany is the home of music. Overall the book is clean ans unmarked and thanks to the rebinding, a solid copy which will easily last another 160 year plus. Not quite a very good copy, but close enough. From the title page: "Translated from the third German edition, and edited by Herrman S. Saroni. Fifth American edition, with appendix and notes by Emilius Girac" "Adolph Bernhard Marx German was musical writer; born at Halle May 15, 1799; died at Berlin May 17, 1866.With Kullak and Stern, Marx founded in 1850 the Berliner Musikschule, now the Stern Musik Conservatorium, one of the most prominent musical institutes of Berlin. Here he taught until 1856, when he resigned in order to devote himself entirely to literary and university work and to the teaching of composition. His long and intimate friendship with Mendelssohn was ultimately severed because of the latter's strictures upon Marx's compositions, which, indeed, have not withstood the test of time. His musical writings, however, are far more valuable, and include: "Ueber Malerei in der Tonkunst" (1828); "Die Lehre von der Musikalischen Komposition" (Berlin, 1837-1847, 4 vols. ; several times reprinted);"Allgemeine Musiklehre" (1839; 9th ed., 1875; translated into English); "Die Musik des 19ten Jahrhunderts und Ihre Pflege" (1855); "Ludwig van Beethoven's Leben und Schaffen" (1858; 3d ed., 1875); "Gluck und die Oper" (1863, 2 vols.); "Erinnerungen aus Meinem Leben" (1865, 2 vols.); and several other writings of an analytical nature."

Descripción de la tienda

Good Reading was established in 1991. In early 2013, I downsized from a shop which spanned a block and two stories to a largish house which resembles a rabbit warren. There are at approximately 40,000 titles, including over 10,000 books in Italian, French, German, Modern Greek, Latin and classical Greek., most of which have not yet been catalogued. I also have a very large Theology section, and a substantial cookery and Australian History one. Please contact me if there is a specific title you are chasing as it may be languishing on the shelf uncatalogued. All enquiries will be answered promptly, books will be mailed out swaddled like Russian babies, and all faults honestly described. I do a full refund for any book sporting nasty surprises.
