FIRST PRINCIPLES OF MUSIC.

By F. J. READ, Mus. Doc. (Oxon.)

Formerly Professor at the Royal College of Music.

Crown 8vo. 1s. 6d.

This book is the result of the author's long experience as Professor of Theory at the Royal College of Music, and is the clearest and most concise treatise of the kind that has yet been written.

"It is a useful little book, covering a wider field than any other of the kind that we know."—The Times.

"It is calculated to quicken interest in various subjects outside the normal scope of an elementary musical grammar. The illustrated chapter on orchestral instruments, for instance, is a welcome and stimulating innovation."—Daily Telegraph.
