Excerpt from The American History and Encyclopedia of Music Musical Biographies Compiled, Vol. 1 In the preparation of these volumes the aim has been to make the list of musicians include a selection of those that will be most useful in a book of reference for the general reader or student as well as for the musician. To this end the following classes have been particularly emphasized: Great composers; noted artists and performers; successful teachers; musicians who have made inventions or improvements in the instruments they represent; musical critics and writers; all musicians who are im portant in the history of music; and representatives of special schools or epochs of music. An especial effort has been made to include as many contemporary musicians as possible, and American musicians have been given proportionately more space than those of foreign countries. Names of musicians from whom personal information has been Obtained, either directly or from members of their families, are marked with a star. The publisher of these volumes wishes to express thanks to the following libraries for their generous aid and for the courtesy and helpfulness of the members of the various staffs: The Lenox Library at New York; The Boston Public Library; The Congressional Library of Washington; The Chicago Public Library; The Newberry Library of Chicago; The Toledo Public Library.
