Hardcover. Condición: Fair. No Jacket. First Edition. Edge and corner wear; scuffed and scratched; some fraying at the head and tail of the spine; corners are bumped and rubbed; some shelf wear; front and rear hinges are cracked; overall still a nice used VOLUME II! 335 very clean unmarked and uncreased historical and informativ…e pages nicely enhanced by black and white photographs and illustrations! Green cloth with an embossed illustration and lettering on the front and rear boards and gilt lettering and illustration on the spine. Decorative endpapers. Beautifully done. "The preparation of two volumes of critical and biographical sketches, including the masters of music from the earliest pre-classical epoch to the contemporary ultra-moderns, is in itself not a small task. To do it in such a way as to hold the interest of the casual reader and command the respect of the musical enthusiast is doubly difficult. Yet it is hoped that this purpose has here been achieved. A particularly unique feature is the inclusion of many monographs on celebrated composers that are the literary product of other equally celebrated composers, critics and specialists. As a composer, Saint-Saens is known the world over; and yet many may be surprised to realize that as a critic and musical litterateur he is one of the foremost in France." ---- from the Publishers' Foreword. (VOLUME II).

Volume III: Modern Art Songs (continued) Sacred Songs Duets: Sacred and Secular. Volume IV: Opera and Oratorio Excerpts. Volume V: Popular Ballads of All Countries. Volume VI: Old Favorites National and Patriotic Airs Folks Children's Songs. "In this collection it has not been the object to appeal to every taste, but rather to cultivate a taste for that which is best in vocal music. Nevertheless every school of composition and every grade of difficulty - or of easiness - has been represented. Just as in poetry one sometimes desires something less ambitious than an epic, and as in painting a tiny Meissonier often outvalues a twenty-foot canvas, so in Music the short and comparatively simple forms of Franz, Wolf, Grieg, or Schubert, often present as perfect an art-form as a long operatic aria. The folk song is the wild-briar rose of Music. It springs up by the wayside and no one knows who planted it nor how it grew, yet it often has a power that is absent from the more advanced art song." ---- from the Preface.
