_BY THE SAME AUTHOR_
STUDIES IN MODERN MUSIC. First Series. HECTOR BERLIOZ, ROBERT
SCHUMANN and RICHARD WAGNER. With Five Portraits. Fifth Edition.
Price 7s. 6d., cloth.
'We have seldom read a book on musical subjects which has given us so
much pleasure as this one, and we can sincerely recommend it to all who
are interested in the art.'--_Saturday Review._
'The author is evidently a man of wide reading and artistic cultivation,
and not only that, but a musician of complete equipment as far as
technical knowledge and wide sympathies are concerned.'--_Guardian._
'The author of this volume is a Fellow of Worcester College, but there
is no trace of amateurishness in the treatment of his subject, or rather
subjects. On the contrary, he writes with striking thoughtfulness and
breadth of view, so that his essays may be read with much interest by
musicians. It is a remarkable book, because, unlike the majority of
musical treatises by amateurs, it is full of truth and common
sense.'--_Athenæum._
A CROATIAN COMPOSER: Notes Toward the Study of JOSEPH HAYDN. With
Portrait. 2s. 6d. net.
'A volume full of interest, ethnical as well as musical.'--_St James's
Gazette._
'Will be read with interest and profit by all concerned with the study
of music, and especially with the study of the national or racial
elements in musical composition.'--_Globe._
'The writings of the author of "Studies in Modern Music" are invariably
distinguished by learning and acuteness, and this little volume is no
exception to a rule which has already placed its author among the
foremost contributors of his time to the musical literature of this
country. There is no need to discuss here the exceedingly interesting
body of evidence which Mr Hadow has brought together in support of his
contention that a composer hitherto regarded as one of the fathers of
German music should rightly be ranked among those of the Slavonic school
with Borodin and Tschaikowsky for their latest offspring. Enough that
the facts and arguments--biographical, ethnical, musical, and so
on--which he addresses are no less plausible than interesting, and well
deserving of the serious attention of all students of the history and
development of music.'--_Westminster Gazette._

Transcriber's Notes
Both "Dvořàk" and "Dvoràk" were used in this text; both have been
changed to "Dvořák". Similarly, on page 174, "Pàn" was changed to
"Pán", and "Frantisek" to "František".
On page 119, a footnote marker was added to the text (don't care for
money.'[21])
Many other variant and alternative spellings have been preserved, except
where obviously misspelled in the original or where one spelling was
more common in the main text. Obvious punctuation and formatting errors
have also been corrected.
The printed text contained duplicate headings for each division (before
and after each epigraph); in each case the latter instance has been
removed.
