G. Schirmer, New York, 1943. Third Edition. Hardcover (Original Cloth). Very Good Condition/No Dust Jacket. Preface, key to pronunciation, abbreviations & foreign words, & errata to front, followed by alphabetical list of musicians with short biographical details of each. An interesting historical record of Musicians,Composers & Performers pre-1943 with details of their achievements, mentors & performances. From the preface: “The large space devoted to bibliography is only proportionate to the importance of the subject. Reference to sources, where fuller treatment can be found, constitutes a natural and essential supplement to the necessarily condensed statements of a Dictionary. Much time and thought have been given to the selection of titles, and only such have been included as are of real value. The care expended on this part of the task has resulted not only in the correction of errors (wrong titles, dates or places of publication, confusion of different editions, etc.) in the bibliography of predecessors, but many im-portant items in the articles themselves have thus been verified or corrected.” Revised & enlarged. Size: Large Octavo. 1094 pages. Binding is tight, covers and spine fully intact. Previous owner's name in ink plus embossed address to fep.. Gilt titles spine & front. textured green cloth. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: 1-2 kilos. Category: Biography & Autobiography; Reference; Musicians; Dictionaries; Music. Inventory No: 4857. .
