90MANUAL OF MUSIC.
91BY W. M. DERTHICK.
92THIS remarkably practical and comprehensive work has recently been thoroughly revised and greatly enlarged, and in its improved form contains the following features, each of which has received the highest commendation from the most prominent musicians of this country and Europe:
931.—A complete history of music.
942.—A complete set of colored chronological charts, the ingenuity and practical usefulness of which for purposes of reference and historical study have secured for the same so much deserved praise.
953.—Excellent portrait and portraits of nearly one hundred eminent musicians, from Palestina and Orlando Lassus to the youngest of great modern composers, Moritz Moszkowski.
964.—Extensive biographies of over fifty of the most prominent characters in music, past and present.
975.—Carefully prepared analyses of over two hundred characteristic works, showing their form, content and technical requirements.
986.—Over two thousand compositions for historical and artistic illustration from the best foreign editions.
997.—Complete Dictionary of Technical Terms and Phrases.
1008.—Complete Dictionary of Important Musical Works, Instruments and Institutions.
1019.—Complete Dictionary of Musical Artists and Composers.
102Each Dictionary gives the foreign pronunciation of every difficult word, phonetically spelled, so that absolute accuracy may be instantly acquired. The work is introduced exclusively by subscription and is securing a sale quite unprecedented in the history of musical literature. The publishers invite correspondence with any to whom music is congenial and who may desire to secure a permanent and lucrative position. Address
