This book deals with the stories of the great musicians.
“Music is the youngest of the arts. Modern music dates back about four hundred
years. It is not so old as the invention of printing. As an art it began with
the work of the priests of the Roman Catholic Church in endeavoring to arrange
a liturgy. The medieval chant and the popular folk-song came together, and the
science of music was born. Sculpture reached perfection in Greece, painting in
Italy, portraiture in Holland; but Germany, the land of thought, has given us
nearly all the great musicians and nine-tenths of all our valuable musical
compositions.”
