Excerpt from The History of Modern Music: A Course of Lectures Delivered at the Royal Institution of Great Britain
The volume prefaced by the foregoing has been out of print about ten years, during which such' increasingly frequent calls for copies of it have been made that, more pressing occupation preventing the preparation of a new edition, I have many times been on the point of sanctioning a reprint of the old one. I cannot but rejoice at not having done this. A course of six Lectures only, no one of which was to exceed an hour in delivery, on a subject so extended as the History of Modern Music was inevitably a very incomplete cour'se. Moreover the trenchant brevity with which many questions were of necessity treated in it resulted, as I have since found, in false impressions of my Opinions in respect to them.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating history of music in Europe, tracing its evolution from the earliest Christian melodies to the intricate forms that emerged in the late Middle Ages. The author takes readers on a journey through centuries of musical innovation, exploring the contributions of various cultures and individuals who shaped the sound of Western music. The book examines the development of musical notation, highlighting the significance of figures like Guido Aretino, who revolutionized music education with his innovative methods. It also sheds light on the transition from the simple, unmeasured chants of the early Church to the more complex, time-based music of the Middle Ages. The author delves into the origins and evolution of harmony, demonstrating how its development was closely intertwined with the culture and musical practices of Northern Europe. The book provides insights into the diverse forms of musical expression that flourished during this period, from the sacred chants of the Church to the lively secular songs of troubadours and trouvÃÂ res. The book offers a unique perspective on the rich and often overlooked musical heritage of the Middle Ages, revealing the origins of many musical practices and concepts that continue to shape our understanding of music today.
