My Path Through Life
By Lilli Lehmann
Translated from the German by Alice Benedict Seligman
8o. About 500 pp. With 50 Illustrations
Mme. Lehmann gives us a volume of memoirs, musical and personal, which will command the attention of the world-wide public which this great singer has charmed. The book is written with her characteristic sincerity and frankness. She unfolds the complete story of her life, devoting a generous measure of attention to her friends and rivals upon the operatic stage.
Her achievements in Prague, Leipsic, Vienna, and elsewhere, her struggles in Berlin, her extended tours in Europe and America, are fascinatingly told. She presents an account of her collaborations with Wagner at Bayreuth, and tells of her experiences at Court.
The pleasant as well as the arduous aspects of the artist's career are presented with a wealth of anecdote.

The Life of Johann Sebastian Bach
BY
Sir Hubert Parry, M.A., Mus. Doc., D.C.L.
Professor of Music, Oxford; Director of Royal College of Music
Author of “Studies of Great Composers,” “Evolution of the Art of Music,” etc.
8vo. With Portraits.
Sir Hubert Parry's Johann Sebastian Bach, Composer, is at once a biography and a critical and historical study of the achievements of the great eighteenth-century composer, director, and performer upon the organ and piano. The eminence of Sir Hubert Parry himself as a composer and as a writer and student of music needs no comment here. For the last decade he has been professor of music at Oxford. Considering the importance of the man who is the subject of this life, and the authority of Sir Hubert Parry as a critic and writer, no student of music can afford to be a stranger to this thorough and comprehensive work.

Memoirs of a Prima Donna
By Clara Louise Kellogg
(Mme. Strakosch)
8o. With 48 Illustrations.
Clara Louise Kellogg, who is now Clara Louise Strakosch, was the first American prima donna to win recognition abroad. After making her début in opera at the Academy of Music, in New York, in 1861, she appeared in opera in London and later in Berlin, Vienna, and Saint Petersburg. In every country she was received with acclaim and returned to her native land covered with honors showered upon her by the best audiences that the old world affords.
Miss Kellogg created the rôle of Marguerite in Gounod's Faust in this country, and of Mignon in Ambroise Thomas's opera of that name. After winning laurels in Italian opera she organized an English opera company of her own, which sang for several seasons in New York and the principal cities of the United States. While at the head of her own company she produced Wagner's Flying Dutchman for the first time in America, creating the rôle of Senta, and she was the first prima donna to sing Aïda and Carmen in English. Miss Kellogg was famous not only for the beautiful quality of her voice but for her marvelous musical ear. It is said that there were over forty operas that she could sing on twenty-four hours' notice, and that never once in the course of her operatic career had she been known to sing a fraction of a tone off the key.
These Memoirs are filled with anecdotes of the interesting people whom she met, on and off the stage, and contain a fund of information about voice culture and the study of music that no one interested in the subject can read without profit.

An Ideal Biography
Richard Wagner
His Life and His Dramas
A Biographical Study of the Man and an Explanation of His Work
By
W.J. Henderson
Author of “The Story of Music,” “Preludes and Studies,” “What Is Good Music,” etc.
The purpose of this book is to supply Wagner-lovers with a single work which shall meet all their needs. The author has told the story of Wagner's life, explained his artistic aims, given the history of each of his great works, examined its literary sources, shown how Wagner utilized them, surveyed the musical plan of each drama, and set forth the meaning and purpose of its principal ideas. The volume has been prepared with great care and no little labor, and is not intended to be critical, but is designed to be expository. It aims to help the Wagner-lover to a thorough knowledge and understanding of the man and his works.
"An exposition rather than a criticism of Wagner's art, for in Wagner's case it is peculiarly true that any biographical study of the man is inseparable from an explanation of his works. Mr. Henderson's book is intended to help the lover of Wagner to a thorough knowledge and understanding both of the man and his works. Nothing in the English language, at least, has ever so fully covered the subject."—Review of Reviews.
