HECTOR BERLIOZ, ROBERT SCHUMANN, RICHARD WAGNER. THIRD EDITION.
By W. H. HADOW, M.A., Fellow of Worcester College, Oxon.
“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.
“It is a real relief, amid the rambling and slipshod effusions which constitute the bulk of musical belles lettres, to encounter such a volume as these ‘Studies in Modern Music,’ by Mr. W. H. Hadow. Mr. Hadow is himself a musician of no mean attainments; but there is no parade of technical knowledge in his book. He writes like a scholar and a gentleman, his style is felicitous and his critical attitude at once sane and generous.”—Graphic.
“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.
“The essay on musical criticism is well worth anybody’s reading; its general tendency is to extend the basis of modern criticism, commensurably with the larger and wider scope of modern music, to establish standards of musical value by which modern works can be more justly measured than by the pedantic misapplication of once valid rules. In his whole discourse on the subject Mr. Hadow gives evidence of immense common sense, backed up by innate and cultivated artistic perception.”—Atlantic Monthly.

SECOND SERIES.
FREDERICK CHOPIN, ANTONIN DVORÁK, JOHANNES BRAHMS. PRECEDED BY AN ESSAY ON MUSICAL FORM. SECOND EDITION.
“The three biographies are charming; and in each case the author has something both true and new to say.”—National Observer.
“The development of form is described with many brilliant touches and with complete grasp of the subject, and the book, which will probably be considered to be even better than the former work, is most heartily to be recommended to all who wish to attain the highest kind of enjoyment of the best music.”—Times.
“Highly finished portraits are presented of the three modern masters named, and the articles are distinguished by the same musicianly knowledge and felicity of expression as those in the earlier book.”—Athenæum.
“The amount of labour and research condensed into these pages is really remarkable.”—Musical Times.
“There is not a word either in the historical or exegetical portions of Mr. Hadow’s work which will not furnish agreeable suggestion to the casual reader, and satisfaction to the student.”—St. James’s Gazette.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
“It was a happy thought to combine in one book all the music required for an ordinary choral service. Most of our living Church musicians have been laid under contribution to this most excellent collection.”—Musical Standard.
“In the selection of chants the compiler has been guided by an excellent taste. The organist or choirmaster who uses this book will find here not merely the familiar chants we should all be sorry to miss, but many others but little known, and yet both beautiful and well adapted to congregational use. The book is very skilfully arranged and is clearly printed.”—Record.
“A very useful book. The intention of the editor is to promote congregational singing, and therefore all music which is too elaborate in character, or too high in pitch, has been rigorously excluded.”—Church Bells.
“An abundant supply of chants, single and double. Mr. Elliott’s work will assist organists in the choice of suitable chants.”—Church Times.
“A great variety of chants, old and new, will also commend the book, a set for the proper Psalms being especially useful. Altogether this is a book safely to be recommended.”—Saturday Review.
