О книге

Excerpt from The History of American Music

This series of books brings together for the first time the materials for a history of American art. Heretofore there have been attempts to narrate some special period or feature of our artistic development, but the narrative has never been consecutive or conclusive. The present volumes begin with colonial times, and carry the record down to the year 1904. They are intended to cover the graphic, the plastic, the illustrative, the architectural, the musical, and the dramatic arts, and to recite the results in each department historically and critically. That the opinions ventured should be authoritative, the preparation of each volume has been placed in the hands of an expert, - one who practises the craft whereof he writes. The series is therefore a history of American art written from the artist"s point of view, and should have special value for that reason.

In this "History of American Music," the second of the series, the author has told of the beginnings, the foreign influences, the changes, the methods, the personal endeavors, that have gone to the making of our present music. Many of the events here narrated occurred but yesterday or are happening to-day, and hence have little perspective for the historian. It has not always been possible to say a final word, even if that were desirable. In its stead the widely scattered facts have been brought together and arranged sequentially that they might tell their own story and point their own conclusion.
