MUSIC

In the preparation of this music bibliography, it is a rare privilege to be able to include a list which was compiled by the late Miss Mary L. Avery, of the music department of the Lenox Library, New York; and which was used in a lecture delivered by her before the Pratt Institute Library School on January 12, 1900. To this, the following supplementary list, based upon recommendation, may be added. Prices vary.

Brainard, H. L. (music), and Sage, Betty (words)—Four Childhood Rhymes. Schirmer; The Boston Music Co.

Coolidge, Elizabeth—Fifteen Mother Goose Melodies. Schirmer. (Music somewhat difficult.)

Fisher, William Armes—Posies from A Child’s Garden of Verses. Ditson.
