Excerpt from Piano and Song: How to Teach, How to Learn, and How to Form a Judgment of Musical Performances
Friedrich Wieck, the author of the work a translation of which is here offered to the public, was during his long life a distinguished teacher of music. He died in the autumn of 1873. He was the father and teacher of the celebrated pianist, Clara Wieck, now Fr. Dr. Clara Schumann, widow of the renowned composer Robert Schumann, who was also a pupil of Wieck. His second daughter, Fraulein Marie Wieck, is well known in Germany as an artistic performer on the piano-forte.
I have translated this little book, with the belief chat a knowledge of the author's views will be no less valuable in America than in his own country; and with the hope that it may find readers who will be glad to receive the suggestions of so experienced a teacher.
