4.9/5 (12399 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from The Essentials of Musical Knowledge The criticism offered on all works in the English language dealing with musical terms is the lack of conciseness or a meaningless definintion. Take the character called a "note." The word is incorrectly used in every music journal and in dictionaries musical and otherwise. Where "tone" is meant or a "key" on the piano the word "note" is used - musicians of reputation as well as the uncultured teacher of music, use expressions that are incorrect. The following is clipped from a widely circulated journal and it was written by a musical authority. "Place the hand on the key-board and push down five white notes." This is an illustration of the misuse of musical terms. This work is a hand-book for all who study music but more especially for those preparing for National and State Association examinations. College and Conservatory pupils will find it an aid in their work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
