Media: Book Number of Pages: 720
Description: A comprehensive history of music from the Greeks to American jazz, this book presents the subject in such a manner that the reader will discover, to his increasing interest, that he can make a sympathetic approach to composers of all time and to all musical creeds. The author has endeavored to lead the reader to the music itself, realizing that history cannot be substituted for music and feeling that such an informative narrative as this will help the reader in learning from music and musicians.

Primarily a story of the art of music and of its development and growth, this volume gives comparatively little space to the lives of musicians and composers. The book is not, therefore, a "popular" history, though it presents a readable and interesting chronological story. It will, on the other hand, be found entirely reliable, fulfilling its purpose in meeting the needs of the reader who wishes a thorough general knowledge of the history of music.
