TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES:

The book cover was created by the Transcriber and has been put in the public domain.

A number of words in this book have both hyphenated and non-hyphenated variants. For the words with both variants present the one more used has been kept.

Obvious punctuation and other printing errors have been corrected.

The musical examples that are discussed in the book can be heard by clicking on the [Listen] tab. This is only possible in the HTML version of the book. The scores that appear in the original book have been included as images.

In some cases the the scores that were used to generate the music files differ slightly from the original scores. Those differences are due to modifications that were made during the process of creating the musical archives. These modifications were made to correct obvious mistakes in the original scores, to indicate times and to make musical notation more consistent with criteria currently used. These scores are included in pdf format, and can be seen by clicking on the [PDF] tag in the HTML version of the book.

The e-book also includes MusicXML files. These files allows to create music in one program and share the results (back and forth) with other music programs. By clicking the [MusicXML] tag (in the HTML version) it is possible to find the code used to create the music files.
