Recording, musicalAuthors: Waldo Selden Pratt (1907)
THE present book is the outgrowth of a fragmentary syllabus for classes that was issued in 1897. It is meant to be distinctly a book of reference for students rather than a literary or criti-cal survey of a few salient aspects of the subject, or a specialist's report of original research. Aiming at a certain degree of encyclopzedic fullness, it brings together facts and conclusions from a great variety of sources. Much labor has been expended in grouping the material in such a way as to give a systematic impression of the enormous field in view.
