"Though remembered chiefly for his church music, he was also an important composer of keyboard music, songs, and extended vocal works." H. Diack Johnstone in Grove Music Online. "[Bickham ?1706-1771] was principally famous in music circles for his two illustrated folio volumes The Musical Entertainer, first issued in fortnightly parts, each containing four plates, from January 1737 to December 1739. The 200 plates are songs, headed and surrounded with pictorial embellishments illustrative of the song ., and engraved in the style of and even copied directly from Gravelot and Watteau. This work was the first of its kind to be published in England and quickly produced imitators such as Lampe s British Melody, engraved by Benjamin Cole." Frank Kidson et al. in Grove Music Online. A charming engraving. The Musical Entertainer is considered one of the finest 18th century illustrated books. Complete copies of this monumental work are exceptionally rare.
