BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES-OF-

VQV

<x><>(®vt^^e^^N^@)<^<>o-

ABT, Franz, was born at Eilenburg in Prus-

sian Saxony, December 22, 1819. His father

was a clergyman, and Franz, though destined

to the same profession, received a soundmusical education, and was allowed to pursue

both objects at the Thomas-School and Uni-

versity o'f Leipsic. On his father's death herelinquished the church as a profession andadopted music entirely. His first residence

was at Zurich (1841), where he acted as

capellmeister, occupying himself more espe-

cially with men's voices, both as composerand conductor of several societies. In 1852

he entered the staff of the Hof-Theatre at

Brunswick, where since 1855 he has filled the

post of leading capellmeister. The list of

Abt's compositions is enormous, and contains

more than 400 works, consisting chiefly of" Lieder " of the most various kinds, for one,

two or three solo voices, as well as for chorus,

both female and mixed, and, as already men-tioned, especially for men's voices. The part

songs are to be found in many collections.

In the early part of his life Abt composedmuch for the piano-forte, chiefly pieces of

the light sa/on character. These have neverhad the same popularity with his vocal works,and are now virtually forgotten.

ALBANI, the stage-name of the favorite

soprano, Miss Marie Euna Lajeunnesse,born near Montreal, 1851. Her parents wereFrench Canadians, and in 1864 removed to

Albany, whence she derived her pseudonymand where she went upon the stage. Sheafterwards studied at Milan, and made herdebut in 1870. In 1878 she married Mr.Ernest Gye.

BERLIOZ, Hector, a great French composer,critic and litterateur. Born December 11,

1803; died March 9, 1869. Composer of

many overtures, symphonic poems, etc., of

the " programme " order, in which all the re-

sources ofthe modern orchestra are employedwith consummate mastery for the portrayal

of poetic, bizarre, piquant or profound senti-

ment. Berlioz seems like a genius of greatpower, in whom a vivid imagination is notrestrained by good judgment. As a writer

about music he is one of the most gifted of

the present century. His place as a com-poser is not yet settled. His greatest dra-

matic "work, "The Damnation of Faust,"

1846, is only just receiving its due recognition.

BIZET, Georges, born at Paris, October 25,

1838, was a brilliant pupil and laureate at

the Conservatoire from 1848 to 1857. Hestudied composition under Hal^vy, whose

daughter he afterwards married. Beforewinning his " prix de Rome," he gave aninsignificant operetta, " Docteur Miracle"(Bouffes Parisiens, April, 1857), and after his

return from Italy, composed " Vasco deGama," 1863, which did not gain him muchcredit. He wrote many other operas whichmet with varied success, his last effort being" Carmen," a four-act opera. This highlygifted composer and very talented pianist

died almost suddenly on June 3, 1875.

BLUMENTHAL, Jacob, a fashionable pianoteacher in London, and composer of pianopieces and popular songs. Born at Ham-burg, 1829.

BOITO, Signor Arrigo, composer, poet andmusical critic, was born in February, 1842.

His father was a Venetian, and his motherPolish. He entered the Conservatory of

Milan in 1853, and spent nine years there.

His debut as a composer was made at LaScala, 1868, with " Mefistofele," which wasa complete failure at Milan, but in other

places received with much favor. Boito

claims the attention of the musical world,

and is recognized by eminent critics as a

genius.

BUCK, Dudley, born at Hartford, Conn., 1837.

His studies in composition were mainly madewith Julius Rietz at Leipsic and Dresden,where also he was an organ pupil of Schnei-

.der. His first " Motette Collection" waspublished in 1867, and marks an epoch in

American church music ; his second in 1871

.

Buck has also written very much churchmusic for Episcopal choirs, and three import-

ant choral works :" Don Munio," the " 46th

Psalm," and last " Scenes from the GoldenLegend," which gained the $1000 prize at

Cincinnati in 1880. He has also written

several chamber compositions, overtures andtwo symphonies. Buck must be regarded as

one of the most distinguished Americancomposers. In 1871 he became organist at

the Boston Music Hall. In 1875 he removedto Brooklyn, where he still resides.

CAMPANINI, Signor Italo. The popular tenor

was born in Parma, in 1846. His early life

afforded but few indications of his subsequentartistic career. He was a wild unmanageableboy, and in his fifteenth yearjoined the armyof Garibaldi as a volunteer, still bearing anhonorable scar on his cheek, received at

Capua, which proves that he was no " feather-

bed soldier." Abandoning his military career,

he returned to Parrr.a, and was apprenticedto a blacksmith, and it is owing to this acci-

(4)

dental circumstance that his vocal qualifica-

tions were discovered and utilized, affording

another proof of the adage, that "great re-

sults often spring from little causes." He wasin the habit of spending his evenings, withhis friends of the forge, at a little wine-shopin the neighborhood, their chief amusementbeing a good song with a rattling chorus at

the end of it. On one occasion a musicianhappened to drop in just as Campanini wastrolling a ditty, and was immediately struckwith the sympathetic quality of his voice.

He entered into conversation with him, andpersuaded him to obtain some instruction

from a local teacher. He devoted himselfwith such assiduity to his new studies, that

some two years afterwards he obtained anengagement with a strolling operatic com-pany, and remained with it, gaining experi-

ence, until it collapsed for lack of funds to

continueoperations. The manager decampedand many of his victims were left actually

destitute. Campanini nobly came to the

rescue, and devoted some of his savings to

the good work of extricating them from their

unfortunate position. His next proceedingwas to seek the services of an eminent master,and in 1869 he went to Madrid and becamea pupil of Chevalier Francesco Lamperti.In the following year he made his first

appearance as Faust, at La Scala, Milan,and speedily roused the house to enthusiasm.In 187 1 he created the part of Lohengrin in

Italian, at Bologna. He was engaged byMapleson, and came to London during the

following season, where he made his bow as

Gcnnaro, in " Lucrezia." His success since

that time is a matter of history.

CANDIDUS, Herr Wilhelm. About the yeari860 a young man working in his father's

piano-keyboard factory in Philadelphia, hav-ing arooted objection to the business, enlisted

and served with considerable distinction in

the Army of the Potomac. This young manwas none other than Wilhelm Candidus.When "tired of war's alarms," he came to

New York and joined the more peaceableranksof the Arion and Liederkranz Societies,

when he became conscious that he was the

possessor of a fine tenor voice. The fact

becoming public, he was asked to undertakethe role of Max, on the occasion of a per-

formance of " Der Freischiitz," given by the

Arion at the Academy of Music in 1867. Hemade an emphatic "hit," and resolved to

adopt the vocal profession, going to Europefor the purpose, lie fulfilled engagementsat Weimar, Munich, Berlin and Hamburg,

and a year later sang in Her Majesty's OperaHouse in London. Afterwards he was prin-

cipal tenor at the Opera House Franlcfort-

on-the-Main.

GARY, Miss Annie Louise. Miss Gary, whosename is as familiar to every music lover in

America as a " household word," was bornm Wayne, Kennebec Gounty, Maine, in

1842. Her father, shortly after her birth,

removed to Gorham, in the same State, andas her childhood ripened into girlhood, she

exhibited so much natural aptitude that Dr.

Gary sent his daughter to Boston in order

that she might receive thorough musical in

struction, his determination being justified bythe opinion of several prominent musiciansin that city. She proved a most enthusiastic

student, and shortly after commencing her

studies, became a member of Dr. Bartol's

church choir. She exhibited so much promisethat her friends organized a concert for her

benefit, and the result enabled her to leave

for Europe in 1866. She studied with Gorsi

in Milan, Viardot Garcia in Baden-Baden,and, finally, with Henry G. Deacon in Lon-don, concerning whose qualifications as a

teacher she speaks in the most enthusiastic

terms of commendation. Feeling conscious

that her voice would fit her for the lyric stage,

she diligently pursued her dramatic studies,

and made a most successful debut in Gopen-hagen in the year 1867, 3.s Azucena in "IITrovatore." Her services were at oncesought by Ferdinand Strakosch, under whosemanagement she fulfilled a round of engage-ments in Sweden and Norway. She after-

wards appeared in Hamburg, and created so

favorable an impression that her continental

reputation may be said to have been estab-

lished from this time. Her subsequent careerin Stockholm, Berlin and London was a series

of triumphs, and she was rapturously receivedhere on her return in 1870, when she appearedin conjunction with Nilsson and other cele-

brated artists. She is emphatically the repre-

sentative American contralto, and is univer-

sally popular, both on account of exceptionalgifts as a vocalist, and her admirable quali-

ties as a woman.

CLAY, Frederic, son of James Glay, M. P. for

Hull. Born August 3, 1840, in the RueGhaillot, Paris ; educated in music entirely

by Molique, with the exception of a short

period of instruction at Leipzig under Haupt-mann. Mr. Glay's compositions have beenwholly for the stage. In all his works Mr.Clay shows a natural gift of graceful melodyand a feeling for rich harmonic coloring.

Although highly successful in the treatmentof dramatic music, it is probable that his

songs will give him the most lasting fame."She wandered down the mountain side,"

"Long ago," and "The sands of Dee,"among others, are poems of great tendernessand beauty, and not likely to be soon for-

gotten.

COWEN, Frederic Hymen, was born January29, 1852, at Kingston, Jamaica; exhibitedearly an extraordinary love of music, wastaken to England by his parents when fouryears old, and placed under the tuition ofSir J. Benedict and Sir J. Goss, whose pupilhe remained until the winter of 1865. Hethen studied at the Conservatories of Leipzigand Berlin, returning to London in 1868.

Amongst his early works are an operettaentitled "Garibaldi," a fantasie-sonata, a

trio, quartette, piano-forte concerto, and asymphony in G minor, besides several can-

tatas. On November 22, 1876, his opera of" Pauline " was brought out by the Carl Rosacompany, at the Lyceum Theatre, with great

success. Mr. Gowen is also the author of

many popular songs.

GROUCH, F. Nicholls, a composer of songsand ballads during the second quarter of the

present century, was the author of many pro-

ductions which gained great popularity, andone—" Kathleen Mavourneen "—which still

retains its place in public favor. He left

England about 1845 and came to America,where he is still living.

DAMROSCH, Leopold, a distinguished violin-

ist and musical director, was born in Posen,in 1832, where his musical studies werebegun ; was educated in medicine at Berlin,

and in 1854 was a practicing physician in his

native town. In 1855 and 1856 he appearedat Magdeburg and Berlin as solo violinist

with great success. He presently becameconductor at the Stadt Theatre in Posen. In

1 87 1 he came to New York as conductor of

the Arion Society, and has since resided

there. Is at present (1881) conductor of the

Oratorio Society, of symphony concerts, etc.

As a conductor, Damrosch is distinguished

for energy and vigor of conception. He is awarm advocate of the Liszt-Wagner "Musicof the Future," although a successful expo-nent of the classic ; is also a composer ofviolin and orchestral works.

FAURE, Jean Baptiste. Son of a singer in the

church at Moulins, where he was born Jan.

15, 1830. When he was three years old thefamily removed to Paris, and when he wasseven his father died. In 1843 he enteredthe solfeggio class in the Conservatoire, andsoon after the maitrise of the Madeleine,where he was under Trevaux, an excellent

teacher, to whom he owes his sound knowl-edge of music. After the breaking of his

voice he took up the piano and double bass,

and was for some time a member of the bandat the Odeon Theatre. When his voice hadrecovered he joined the chorus of the

Theatre Italien, and in November, 1850 againentered the Conservatoire, and in 1852 ob-tained the first prizes for singing and for

opera comique. Pie made his debut October20, 1852, at the Opera Comique, in Masse's"Galathee," after which headvanced steadily

through various roles until his creation of

the parts of O-07/^(r<z'«r in Gevasrt's "OuentinDumard" (March, 1858), and iYc^/in'Meyer-beer's "Pardon de Ploermel" (April, 1859),placed him in the first rank. In the winterof 1 86 1 he made his first appearance at theGrand Opera, since which time he has beenregularly retained there. In London he first

appeared at Govent Garden, April 10, i860,

as Hoel in " Dinorah," and has since thattime been a regular visitor at one or other of

the Italian opera houses. At Brussels, also,

he is often heard, and in 1874, during thewar, he undertook the first class of singingin the Brussels Conservatoire. In 1861 heappeared in Berlin at Meyerbeer's request,

but the tremolo in his voice did not pleasethe Germans, and he has not revisited

that country. Faure is a^ good musician anda fine actor. He is also a collector of pictures

and a man of great culture. Plis voice is abaritone of great extent and of very fine

equality. His characters comprise Alephisto-

pJieles, Hamlet, Nelusco (" Africaine "), PoS(t

(" Don Carlos "), Do7t Giovanni, and manymore. In 1857 he was for a short time pro-fessor of singing at the Paris Conservatoire,and in 1857 he married Mile. Lefevre (bornDecember 21, 1828), the chief actress of

Dugazon" roles at the Opera Comique. Hehas published two books of songs (Heugel).

FLOTOW, Friedrich, a German opera compo-ser, born April 27, 1812, at Mecklenburg;resides at present in the neighborhood of

Vienna. Flotow is the author of no less thanfourteen or fifteen operas, of which " Stra-

della," "Martha," and " L'Ombre " havebeen extremely successful. Flotow is a pleas-

ing melodist and a genial musician.

FORMES, Karl, bass singer ; son of the sextonat Miihlheim on the Rhine ; born August 7,

1 8 10. What musical instruction he had, heseems to have obtained in the church choir;but he first attracted attention at the concertsfor the benefit of the Cathedral fund at

Cologne, in 1841. So obvious was his talent

that he was urged to go on the stage, andmade his debut at Cologne as Sarastro in the" Zscuberflote," January 6, 1842, with the mostmarked success, ending in an engagementfor three years. In 1849 ^e came to London,and sang first at Drury Lane, in a Germancompany, as Sarastro, on May 30. He madehis appearance on the Italian stage at GoventGarden, March 16, 1850, as Caspar in "IIFranco Arciero " (" Der Freischiitz"). AtthePhilharmonic he sang first on the followingMonday, March 18. From that time for someyears he was a regular visitor to London, andfilled the parts of Bertratn, Alairel, Rocco,Leporello, Beltramo, etc. In 1857 he wentto America, and has resided in San Franciscosince 1874.

FR.>,^Z, Robert, the most distinguished song-wi*fter, and one of the foremost musicians of

the present time. Born June 28, 181 5, at

Halle, Handel's birthplace. Franz studiedmusic against his parents' wishes ; when his

first set of twelve songs (1843) were pub-lished, they attracted the favorable notice of

Schumann, and afterwards of Gade, Men-delssohn, etc., after which heliad apleasantertime. His hearing becoming affected, hewas obliged to relinquish (in 1868) his em-ployment as organist and lecturer on musicat the University of Halle. Franz is the

author of very many songs and of manyother compositions, besides which he hasadded missing parts to several of the scores

of Bach and Handel, thereby rendering themavailable for modern use.

GABRIEL, Mary Ann Virginia, o'f Irish par-

entage, born at Banstead, Surrey, February

7, 1825, learned the piano from Pizis,

Dohler, and Thalberg, and harmony andconstruction from Molique. Her principal

work was a cantata named "Evangeline,"founded on Longfellow's poem ; she wrotemany operettas, one of which, "Widowsbewitched," was performed by Mr. GermanReed's company, in 1867, and had a longrun. Her cantatas, "Dreamland" and"Evangeline," were performed at GoventGarden in 1870 and 1873. Many of hersongs were very popular. Miss Gabriel

married Mr. George E. March (author of

most of her librettos) in November, 1874,and died from the effects of an accident onAugust 7, 1877.

8 BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES OF POPULAR COMPOSERS AND SINGERS.

GALASSI, Signer Antonio Faentini. This emi-nent baritone, one of the greatest lyric artists

of which the contemporary stage can boast,

was born in Loreto, in 1845, and in his twelfth

year received a paternal blessing, and waspatted on the head by His Holiness, PopeEius IX, who was so struck by the beauty of

his voice, that he designated him a '' contral-

tuccio diprima sforza," and presented himwith a medal. His first vocal instructor wasBenedetto Taddei, and he frequently tookpart in his church services. On the outbreakof hostilities in connection with the strugglefor liberty, he joined the Garibaldian army,where his genial character and manly naturegained for him the hearty good will of his

comrades in arms. At the termination of the

war he rejoined his family and renewed his

musical studies under Ferroni. Pecuniarytroubles threatened to deprive him of themeans to continue his lessons, when his

master announced a public concert, and,fortunately for Galassi, a Signor Nessoli, whohappened to be present, was much struck bythe beauty of his voice and energetic style.

Learning of his trouble, he provided him withmeans, and he shortly afterwards proceededto Bologna for the purpose of profiting bythe instructions of Angelo Bianchi. A yearlater he made his first appearance at the Lodiin " La Straniera." He was next heard of in

the Brazils, where he was intrusted with sub-ordinate parts, but his talent soon asserted

itself, and he scored a brilliant success asCarh in Verdi's " Ernani." The destructionof the opera house at Pernambuco, by fire,

broke up the company and he returned to

Milan. In 1874 his services were securedby Mr. Mapleson, and he has since delightedAmerican audiences by his admirable per-formances. Although really a dramatic artist,

his rendering of classical concert works is

also in all respects excellent.

GEIBEL, Adam, was born in the little village

of Neienheim, near Frankfort-on-the-Main,Germany, on September 15, 1855. Hebe-came blind in early childhood. In 1862, his

parents removed to America, settling in

Philadelphia. Two years later, Adam, thenbut nine years of age, was admitted to the

Pennsylvania Institution for the Blind, wherehe remained eight years as a pupil, and after-

wards was appointed an assistant teacher of

the violin and organ. He resigned this po-sition in 1875. While at this institution, hestudied harmony and composition with theable organist and director of St. Stephen'sChurch, Mr. D. D. Wood. His first compo-sition was written and published in March,1874; this was followed by others, until his

works at present number more than twohundred, both vocal and instrumental. Mr.Geibel is still a resident of Philadelphia andis organist of one of the largest churches in

that city. Among his more recent composi-tions, which are eliciting marked attention,

are his famous waltz-song, "Orange Blos-

soms," "The Fisherman's Bride,""

'Tis

better thus to part," " Bring me a Letter fromHome," "Angels are watching above,"

^ "What could I wish for.?"—vocal; and" Song of the Lilac,"—instrumental. Thereis no writer in America who gives promise ofa more brilliant musical future than AdamGeil)el.

GERSTER, Etelka. " Etelka " is the femininediminutive of "Attila," a name characteristic

of Hungary ; and Etelka Gerster was born at

Kassa (Kaschau), the capital of Upper Hun-gary, in 1855. Her father, a merchant,brought up his family to refined tastes. Hewas fond of music, and the family circle often

made entertainment of an evening out of the

songs of Schubert and other German compo-sers. Nobody in the family seemed to think

of special musical study until a visiting friend

of the family from Vienna spoke of the prom-ise which he thought lay in Etelka's voice.

He asked permission to bring his friend

Hellmesberger to hear her, and some timelater the veteran musician came. He en-

dorsed his friend's good opinion of the voice,

but contended that there was but one judgeof such matters in Vienna, and that wasMadame Marchesi. Etelka was brought to

Vienna and sang for Marchesi. The great

teacher expressed a willingness to accept heras a pupil ; and, Frau Hellmesberger havingkindly opened her home to the little Hunga-rian, she began her studies in perhaps the

most delightfully, and thoroughly musical

atmosphere in Europe. Madame Marchesiwas at that time connected with the ViennaConservatory ; its first prize fell to Gerster at

the examination in 1875. Among the musi-

cians present at that examination were Signor

Verdi and Signor Gardini, the latter a con-

ductor of an opera troupe. He offered Etelka

an engagement, and she accepted. For twoseasons she sang in Spanish and Italian

towns, and finally, in March, 1877, began in

Berlin. For three weeks the company, com-posed of singers all unknown to fame, sangto empty houses. Then came whispers of

the fact that the walls of the despised Kroll's

were echoing the voice of an extraordinary

singer ; and Etelka Gerster had reached the

turning-point in her career. The nobility

flocked to hear her, and the emperor and the

court were constant attendants at her repre-

sentations. In the midst of her triumphs she

married Dr. Gardini, and left Kroll's to accept

an engagement at Her Majesty's in London.Compared with the lives of the famous singers

of the last and early part of this century,

Etelka Gerster's life has been uneventful

;

but she is a general favorite, loved andadmired.

GILCHRIST, William Wallace, was born in

Jersey City, January 8, 1846. His parents

removed to Philadelphia when he was nine

years of age. Here he received his musicaleducation, and has always been identified

with its musical interests except for one year

(1871-1872), when he resided in Cincinnati.

He is the director of several vocal societies,

and has a local reputation as a vocalist, pos-

sessing an excellent and flexible baritone

voice. As a composer he has universal fame,having achieved the Cincinnati Festival prize

of 1882, the judges being Carl Reinicke(Leipsic), Camille Saint-Saens (Paris), andTheo. Thomas. In 1881, Mr. Gilchrist wonthe three prizes offered by the MendelssohnClub ofNew York for compositions of various

styles for male voices.

GOUNOD, Charles Francois. Born in Paris,

June 17, 1818. He received his early musicaleducation from his mother, a distinguished

pianist, and, having finished his classical

studies at the Lycce St. Louis, and taken his

degree as Bachelicr-desletters, in 1 836 enteredthe Conservatoire, where he was in Flalevy's

class for counterpoint, and learned compo-sition from Pacr and Lesueur. Gounod is a

great musician and a thorough master of the

orchestra. Of too refined a nature to write

really comic music, his dramatic compositionsseem the work of one hovering betweenmysticism and voluptuousness. This contrastbetween two opposing principles may betraced in all his works, sacred or dramatic,and gives them an immense interest, bothfrom a musical and psychological point of

view. In the chords of his orchestra, majesticas those of a cathedral organ, we recognizethe mystic ; in his soft and original melodies,the man of pleasure. In a word, the lyric

element predominates in his work, too often

at the expense of variety and dramatic truth.

HATTON, John Liphot, born in Liverpool,

1809, is one of the foremost composers in

England at the present time. Has composedmusic for several of Shakespeare's plays,

anthems, part-songs, operas, and last the

sacred drama " Hezekiah," produced at theCrystal Palace in 1877. Hatton is a fine

accompanist, and visited this country in that

capacity in 1848, and again with Parepa in

1867.

HAUCK, Minnie, born (of a German father)

at New York, November 16, 1852, made herfirst appearance, at a concert in New Orleans,about 1865. She was then placed under thecare of Signor Enani in New York, and madeher debut on the stage of that city, as Amina,in 1 868. After a successful tour in the States,

with a large repertoi>-e of characters, she cameto London, and appeared at Covent Gardenas Amina (October 26, 1868) and Mar-ghe7'ita. In 1869 she was engaged by theGrand Opera, Vienna, and sang there and at

Moscow, Berlin, Paris and Brussels, withgreat success, for several years, in a large

range of parts. On April 27, 1878, shereappeared at Her Majesty's, as Violctta, in

the " Traviata." She sustained the part of

Cannen, in Bizet's opera of that name, at

Brussels, and on its production in London byMr. Mapleson, at Her Majesty's, on June 22,

thus making the success of the piece, whichhad not pleased in Paris, and showing herself

to be not only a high-class singer, but also

possessed of no ordinary dramatic power.Her voice is a mezzo-soprano, of great force

and richness, and she is said to sing Italian,

German, French and Hungarian with equalfacility.

HULLAH, John, LL.D., a distinguished teacher

of singing and musical educator in England.Born at Worcester, 181 2 ;

came early to Lon-don, where he has lived ever since. In 1838,

after composing several small operas, Mr.Hullah turned his attention to the popularinstruction in vocal music, in which he hasever since been engaged. He advocates the" fixed do," as distinguished from the " mov-able do " of the tonic sol-fa schools. He is

the author of many text-books of music, lec-

turer and professor of vocal music in Queen'sCollege, London, and inspector of training-

schools for the United Kingdom. His lectures

on musical history are very interesting. (2

vols.)

KELLOGG, Clara Louise, though born in

Sumtcrville, South Carolina, in July, 1842, is

of northern extraction. Her mother hadconsiderable talent as a musician, and Clara

was her only child. In 1856 they removedto New York, where she received the wholeof her musical education. She made her

first appearance there at the Academy of

Music (opera), as Gilda in " Rigoletto," in

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES OF POPULAR COMPOSERS AND SINGERS.

1861, and sang that season ten or twelvetimes. In 1867 (November 2) she made herdebut in London, at Her Majesty's, as J\Iar-

ghcrita, sang constantly, and was re-engagedfor the next year. From 1868 to 1872 shewas touring in the United States. On May 1 1,

1872, she reappeared in London, at DruryLane, Her Majesty's Opera, as Lhida, andsang during that season also as Gilda. Onher return to the United States she continuedto sing in Italian Opera, till 1874, when sheorganized an English Troupe, herself super-

intending the translation of the words, the7nise en scctte, the training of the singers

and the rehearsals of tlic chorus. Such washer devotion to the project, that in the winterof 1874-75 she sang no fewer than 125 nights.

It is satisfactory to know that the schemewas successful. Miss Kellogg's musical gifts

are great. She is said to be familiar withthirty-five operas. She has great conscien-tiousness as an artist, ardent enthusiasm, anda voice of great compass and purity; in

addition to which she has a remarkable talent

for business, and is never so happy as whenshe is doing a good or benevolent action.

KUCKEN, Friedrich Wilhelm, the melodiousand distinguished song-writer, was born at

Blackede, Hanover, 1810. He studiedcoun-terpoint at Berlin, and with Scchter in Vi-

enna, and orchestration with Halevy in Paris.

Kiicken was a prolific composer of operas,

sonatas, etc., as well as the songs and duetson which his fame rests ; lives in Schwerin

LECOCQ, Charles, the popular composer ofcomic operas, operettas, etc., was born in

Paris in 1832; entered the Conservatoire in

1849, and distinguished himself. His first

successful opera was " Le Docteur Miracle,"

in 1857. Among his most popular pieces are" La Fille de Mme. Angot," 1873, which ranfor five hundred nights consecutively. Hisworks are distinguished for life, brio and easygayety.

LIND, Jenny, the great soprano, was born at

Stockholm in 1820; studied singing there,

and afterward with Manuel Garcia in Paris.

Her debut took place in 1842, but her repu-tation was not fully established until 1847.Her American tour under Barnum's management was in 1850 and 1851. In 1852 shemarried Mr. Otto Goldschmidt, the pianist.

She still lives in London.

LITTA, Marie, born June i, 1856, in Bloom-ington. III. Her parents were natural musi-cians, and, when very young, Litta gaveconcerts under the management of her father.

She went to Europe in 1874 to complete herstudies, and filled many successful engage-ments while there. Returned after an absenceof four years, and made her debut in operaat Chicago.

LUCCA, Pauline, one of the most brilliant

operatic artists of a brilliant epoch, is anative of Vienna. Her high musical gifts

showed themselves early. When a merechild she sang in the choir of the Karls-kirche, in 1856. One Sunday the principal

singer was missing, and the young chorister,

put forward to supply her place in the solo

of a mass of Mozart's, revealed a beauty ofvoice and charm of style that startled all

present. She studied under Uschmann andLevy, and her parents being in straitened

circumstances, entered the chorus of the

opera, at Vienna, which she quitted in 1859,to come out at Olmiitz. Just before leaving,

it fell to her to lead the Bridemaids' Chorusin the " Freischiitz," her performance cre-

ating a sensation that made Vienna eager to

retain her ; but it was too late. On September 4,

1859, she made her debutm Olmiitz as Elvirain " Ernani," and there became a favorite at

once. At Berlin she was engaged as Courtsinger for life. In 1872 she severed her con-

nection with Berlin, and went to America,where she remained two years on an operatic

tour through the States. She returned to

Europe in 1874, and sang at all the chief

cities of Germany, except Berlin. At Vienna,where she now resides, she has remainedone of the chief attractions of each season.

Besides starring engagements in Germany,she appeared in Brussels in 1876, St. Peters-

burg and Moscow in 1877, and Madrid in 1878.

At Vienna she recently added Donna Anna,Carmen, z.nd Madeleijie m " Le Postilion," to

her list of successful parts. In 1865 she

married Baron Rahder.

MATERNA, Frau Amalia Friedrich. AmaliaMaterna was born in 1847, in St. George,a small market town in Styria ; her father

was a schoolmaster, passionately devotedto music. As is, or perhaps was, customaryin the remoter German provinces, he playedseveral instruments, some of them with

virtuosity. Naturally his children were soonconversant with things musical. The little

Amalia, in her ninth year, sang in the

musical masses in the little church of St.

George, and soon became known and wel-

comed as a soloist in the neighborhood. Herfather died while her talent was only in the

first stage of its development. She had nowonly to look to herself for further culture.

An attempt to obtain instruction from the

Vienna professor, Gentiluomo, failed, becausehe demanded such a fee as the poor school-

master's family could not afford to pay. Shewas thus compelled to prosecute her studies

by herself. She found a second home with

her brother, who was a schoolmaster in St.

Peter's, in Upper Styria. Here, while keep-

ing house for her brother, she took part in

the services of the church, and her singing

won for her the affc;tions of the townsfolk.

At Gratz the pupil of nature came into contact

with circles artistically cultivated and in-

spired;professional judges then thought that

Amalia had a genuine contralto voice, while

she herself preferred to appear as a sopranoin churches, concerts and private societies.

The present compass of her voice shows suf-

ficiently how correctly she judged herself.

The nerve she displayed in these perform-

ances induced Czernitz, the director of the

Thalia Theatre, of Gratz, to engage her for

operetta at his house, at a salary which, com-mencing at thirty-five florins per month, soonrose to eighty. Her first role was in Suppe's

opera, " Flotte Bursche." Her success wasso great that her salary was raised to onehundred florins. At Gratz, while singing in

all possible and impossible operas, she metKarl Friedrich, the actor, whom she married,

and with him she went to Vienna, whereTVeumann, of the Carl Theatre, engaged her

at a salary which enabled her to prosecute

her studies seriously. While still singing in

light French and German operettas, she

studied assiduously under Professor Proch.

In 1868 she sang before Kapellmeister Esser

the grand air of Etvira. from " Don Giovan-

ni." Esser arranged for another hearing of

the aspirant in the presence of Dinglestedt,

the director of the Opera House at which she

sang the part of the Fury in "Armida." Anengagement for the theatre was the result,

and she made her debut April 2, 1869, in the

old Karntnerthor Theatre, as Selika, in" L'Africaine." The grand singing, thestrong acting, the majestic form of the debu-tante, gained a brilliant success. She nextassumed the part o( Amelia, in the " Ballo in

Maschera," and of Leonora in " Fidelio."

The enthusiasm which she aroused led the

manager to engage her for three years. Butthese performances, superb as they were,were surpassed by her rendering of Ortrud,in "Lohengrin." In this role the excellenceof her dramatic talent was first placed in its

true light. Since that period she has beenretained, we may say, permanently, at the

Vienna Opera House. She attracted the

notice of Richard Wagner, and during his

visit to Vienna, in May, 1872, he formed theresolution to have her as the Walki'ire, parexcellence, for Beyreuth. In 1876 she crea-

ted Briinnhilde, the central character of theTrilogy. In 1S77 she was the leading attrac-

tion at the Wagner Concerts given in London.After her appearance and triumph at theBeyreuth Festival, Frau Materna has had thebenefit cf the artistic advice of Wagner, whohas chosen her to be the Kundry of his newwork, "Parrifal," to be produced this sum-mer. As Bri'mnhilde, as Valentine, as Don-na Anita, as Leonora, as Aida and Medea,Frau Materna is incomparable. The breadthand grandeur of her style render her pecu-liarly well adapted for the exacting roles of

the " Prophet of the Future," a circumstanceof which he is obviously cognizant. It is

stated that when he heard Materna sing for

the first time, he ejaculated :" Gott set ge-

danki ! L'h habe Bri'mnhilde gcfunden."(Thank God! I have found my Briinnhilde)

;

and her subsequent embodiment of the partat Beyreuth in 1S76 was the perfect realiza-

tion of his most exalted hopes. Apart fromher intimate acquaintance with Wagneriantradition, she stands alone as the grandestdramatic soprano of the classical school nowliving.

MENDELSSOHN, Felix, born in Hamburg,February 3, 1809, was the son of AbrahamMendelssohn, a banker, a man of refinedtastes, and grandson of Moses Mendelssohn,the eminent rabbi and philosopher. Felix

was the second of four children, of whomFanny, the eldest, manifested the most re-

markable talents in music. When Felix wasfour years old the family moved to Berlin.

The theorist Zelter was his teacher in com-position, and Berger in piano-playing. Atthe age of twelve he was pronounced byZelter his best scholar. In the year 1829Mendelssohn became the piano-pupil of

Moschclcs, with whom there sprang up avery intimate friendship. In 1829 he started

to visit London, but made a long tour throughmany places of interest, especially in Italy,

before he reached England, where he wasrapturously received. In 1835 Mendelssohnwent to Lcipsic, and remained there, all butone year, for the rest of his life. He assumed*the direction of the Gewandhaus concerts,which reached a delicacy unknown to thembefore. In 1836 he wrote the oratorio of" St. Paul," which excited the highest enthu-siasm. In 1846 the Leipsic Conservatorywas opened with about sixty pupils. Theteachers were Mendelssohn, •Schumann

(piano), David (violin) and Becker (organ).

This renowned scliool was chiefly the ci eation

of Mendelssohn's brain, and owes to him its

character. In 1846 he brought out his

"Elijah." Some of his other works are:

Overtures to the "Midsummer Night's

Dream," "Songs Without Words," "Oh,Rest in the Lord," " Spring Song," and the

vveil-known duet for soprano and alto,

"Would That My Love." His life was full

of activity and it is no wonder that his

delicate frame wore out. He died in Leipsic,

November 4, 1847.

MURSKA, lima di, the brilliant singer, was

born about 1843 in Croatia; studied singing

with Marchesi in Vienna, and made her

dedi/^ in 1862. Her voice is a soprano of

about three octaves' compass and great exe-

cution.

NILSSON, Christine, was born August 20,

1843, nearWe.xio in the district of Wederslof,

Sweden, where her father was a small farmer

on the estate of Count Hamilton. From an

early date she showed great aptitude for

music, and her voice proved the means of

her introduction to Baroness Lenhusen, fte^

Valerino, herself formerly a singer, from

whom the young vocalist received some les-

sons. She was afterwards instructed by Franz

Berwald, of Stockholm, and in six monthssang at Court. Miss Nilsson accompanied

the Baroness Lenhusen to Paris, and studied

singing under M. Wartel. She made her

debut at the Theatre Lyrique, October 27,

1864, as Violetta, in a French version of " LaTraviata." Her voice is of moderate power,

great sweetness, briUiancy, and evenness in

all the register, the compass being about two

and a half octaves, from G natural to D in

alt. Her style is especially suited to the morepathetic parts of opera, being peculiarly ex-

cellent as Elsa, Margaret, and JSlignon ; for

Valentine, while looking the part to perfec-

tion, she lacks the necessary physique.

During her carher seasons her success was

helped by a certain naivete of look andmanner, which was very charming.

OFFENBACH, Jacque^, the famous composerof opera-buffo, was born at Cologne, 1819,

of Jewish parents ; studied music;became

orchestral conductor, and appeared as com-poser in 1853. Offenbach composed si.xty-

nine pieces and one hundred and forty-three

acts within twenty-five years. Died 1880.

OSGOOD, Mrs. E. Ahne. This favorite soprano

is a Bostonian. As a girl she exhibited

unusual fondness for music, and never tired

of singing ballads, etc., which she rendered

in a charmingly unassuming and attractive

manner. Her parents were somewhat un-

willing that she should adopt a public career,

but, finally yielding, she appeared for two

years in connection with the concerts of the

Beethoven Quintet Club. In 1874 Mrs. Osgoodwent to London, where she pursued her stud-

ies under Randcgger, and in 1875 was allot-

ted a share in the soli work at the HandelFestival at the Crystal Palace. Her success

was speedily established, and during the past

few years she has occupied the position of

the leading oratorio soprano in England,taking a prominent part in nearly all import-

ant performances of the kind. She is also in

great rec|uest as a ballad singer.

PAPPENHEIM, Eugenie. A soprano singer

who excited some attention in London for a

couple of years. She is an Austrian by birth,

and was first heard of at Mannheim, and then

at Hamburg, where she was one of the operatroupe in 1872-75, and in 1874 gave some" Gastspiele " at Kroll's Theatre, Berlin, with

great success, especially as Leonora in " Fi-

delio." She next went to America as a

member of a German company under Wach-tel, and remained there till 1878, when onJune 15, she made a successful debut in Lon-don, at Her Majesty's Theatre, as Valentine

in "The Huguenots." Madame Pappen-lieim is thoroughly good and careful both as

a singer and actress. Her parts are alwaysstudied with care and conscientiousness, andshe is capable of considerable dramaticintensity. She is now a member of the Ger-man Theatre at Pesth.

PATTI, Adelina (Adela or Adcle Juaiia Maria),

born February 19, 1843, '^^ Madrid, was the

youngest daughter of Salvatore Patti, anItalian singer, who died in 1869, and a Span-ish mother, also a singer, well known in Spainand Italy, before her marriage with Patti, as

Signora Barili. The parents of Adelina wentto America, and she was taken there as achild. Having shown great aptitude for

music, Mile. Patti received instruction in

singing from Maurice Strakosch, who marriedher elder sister, Amelia ; she appeared in

public in America at a very early age, and waswell received, but was wisely withdrawn for

some years for the purpose of further study.

She reappeared November 24, 1859, at NewYork as Liicia, andplayedotherparts, in all of

which she was highly successful. Mile. Patti

made her debut \w. England, May 14, 1861, at

the Royal Italian Opera, as Ainina, with

wonderful success, and from that time becamefamous, though c|uite unknown before. Sherepeated that part no less than eight times,

and confirmed her success by her perform-ance of Lucia, Violetta, Zerlina ("DonGiovanni "), Martha and Rosina. She sangthat autumn at the Birmingham Festival, in

opera at Liverpool, Manchester, etc., andafterwards was engaged at Berlin, Brussels

and Paris. From 1861 to the present timeMme. Patti has sung at Covent Garden everyyear and has maintained her position as per-

haps the most popular operatic artist of the

time. Mme. Patti made an operatic tour in

the provinces in 1862, sang at the Birming-ham of 1864, notably as Adah on the pro-

duction of " Naaman ;

" at the HandelFestivals of 1865, 1S77 and 1880 ;

atthe Liver-

pool Festival of 1874, '^s well as in several

brilliant provincial concert tours. She hasenjoyed the same popularity on the conti-

nent, having fullilled several engagementsat Paris, Vienna, St. Petersburg, Moscow,etc., and in various cities of Germany, Italy,

Spain, etc. Her voice is of moderate powerbut great compass, reaching to F in alt; herexecution is brilliant and finished, and she

has considerable charm both of person andmanner. Ller repertoire is extensive, up-

wards of thirty characters, chiefly of the

Italian school, many ofwhich, such as Alaria,

Norina, Adina, Li?ida, Litisa Miller, Des-dexiona, Ninctta, Seiniramide, etc., wererevived for her ; she is also quite at home in

the works of Meyerbeer and Gounod. Thenew parts which she has created in England,Annetta ("Crispino e la Comare "), July 14,

1866; Esmeralda, June 14, 1870; Gelinina,

June 4, 1872; ^«//<r/, July 11, 1867; Za Ca-

tarina [" Diamans d* la Couronne "), July 3,

1872; Aida, June 22, 1876, and Esiella,

("Les Bluets'") of Jules Cohen (Covent

Garden, under the title of " Estella," July 3,

1880), perhaps with a little more success than

when Mme. Nilsson played the part in Paris.

Of the other parts, only as Jjtliet and Aidahas she obtained any permanent popularity.

The Zerlina of Mozart is the only character

she has played in classical opera. Mme.Patti married July 29, 1868, Flenri Marquis

de Caux, Equerry to Napoleon III.

PHILLIPS, Adelaide, was born in Bristol,

England, where her father was a druggist

and chemist, and her mother a professor of

dancing. Adelaide gave promise of having

a fine contralto voice at a very early age.

When she was seven years old her father

came to America and settled at Boston,

where Adelaide received her first instruction

from Thomas Conner. She filled many suc-

cessful engagements in Boston, and in 1852

set out for Europe to continue her studies.

She spent a year and a half in London, andthen visited Italy, where she sang with good

success. In 1855 she returned home, arid

has had an uninterrupted career of success in

her concert-tours through the United States.

PINSUTI, Ciro (II cavaliere), native of Sina-

lunga, Siena, where he was born May 9,

1829. He was grounded in music and the

piano by his father; at ten he played in

public ; at eleven, being in Rome, he wasmade honorary member of the AccademicaFilarmonica, and was taken to England byMr. Henry Drummond, M. P., in whosehouse he resided until 1845, studyi'ng the

piano-forte and composition under Cipriani

Potter, and the violm under H. Blagrove.

In 1845 he returned home, and entered the

Conservatorio at Bologna, where he attracted

the notice of Rossini and became his private

pupil. In 1847 he took his degree at Bologna,

and remained there another year under

Rossini's eye. In 1848 he went back to Eng-land, and started as a teacher of singing,

dividing his time between London and New-castle, where he founded a musical society,

which still exists. Since that time Mr. Pin-

suti's headquarters have been in London,

where he is well and widely known. Since

1855 he has been professor of singing at the

Royal Academy of Music. In addition to a

large circle of pupils of all ranks, manyeminent artists have profited by his counsel,

as Grisi, Bosio, Patti, Ronconi, Graziani,

Mario, etc. His works are largely diffused,

and his charming part-songs, full of melodyand spirit, are great favorites with the singing

societies of England. The list of his pub-

lished compositions comprise more than 230

songs, Enghsh and Italian; 35 duets; 14

trios; 45 part-songs and choruses, and 30 P,

F. pieces; the Te Deum and the opera " II

Mercante di Venezia."

PLANOUETTE. Robert. Born in Paris, July

31, 1850, and passed rapidly through the

Conservatoire, and first appeared as a com-poser of songs and chansonettas for the

Cafes-concerts. Encouraged by the popu-

larity accorded to the bold rhythm andslightly vulgar melody of these songs he

rose to operettas, "Valet de cour," " LeServent de Mme. Gregoire," and "Faille

d'avoine." The decided progress evinced

by this last piece was confirmed by " LeCloches de Corneville," a three act operetta

produced with immense success atthe Folies

dramatiques, on April 19, 1877, adapted to

the English stage by Farnie and Reese, andbrought out at the Folly Theatre, London,February 23, 1878, with equally extraordinary

good fortune. Planquette has since com-posed and published " Le Chevalier Gaston,"one act (Monte Carlo, February 8, 1879) and" Les Voltigeurs de la 32me," three acts

(Theatre de la Renaissance, January 7, 1880).

RANDEGGER, Alberto, composer, conductorand singing-master, was born at Trieste,

April 13, 1832. He began the study of

music at the age of 13, under Lafont, for the

piano-forte, and L. Ricci for composition;

soon began to write, and by the year 1852was known as the composer of several massesand smaller pieces of church music, and of

two ballets, " La Fidanzata di Castellomore"

and " La Sposa d' Appenzello," both pro-

duced at the Teatro Grande of his native

town. In the winter of 1854 he brought out

a tragic opera in four acts, called " BiancaCapello," at the chief theatre of Brescia. In

1864 he produced at the Theatre Royal,Leeds, " The Rival Beauties," a comic oper-

etta in two acts, which was successful. Mr.Randegger's published works are numerousand important, including operettas, songs,

concerted vocal music for voice and orchestra

or piano-forte ; he is also the author of the

Primer of Singing, in Dr. Steiner's series

(Novello). A large number of Mr. Ran-degger's pupils are now before the Englishpublic as popular singers.

REEVES, Sims, the great tenor, was born at

Woolwich, 1821 ; made his (/ii^?// about 1840,

after serious studies in London and Italy, andhas since held highest rank among operatic

and oratorio tenors. His son, in 1880, madea promising debut as tenor.

ROECKEL, Joseph Leopold, youngest son of

Professor Joseph Augustus Roeckel, was bornin London in the year 1838. He studiedcomposition at Wiirzburg, under Eisenhofer,

and orchestration under Gotze, at Weimar.He is well known as a teacher and a volu-

minous composer of songs. His orchestral

and instrumental compositions are less well

known, but his cantatas, " Fair Rosamond,""Ruth," "The Sea Maidens," "WestwardHo," and " Mary Stuart," have been receivedwith much favor. The first of these wasperformed at the Crystal Palace in 1871.

ROZE, Marie Mapleson, born in Paris, March 4,

1850, received her first instruction of Auber,and appeared with marked success in the

chief roles of several operas composed ex-

pressly for her by Auber. She filled a five-

years' engagement under Colonel Mapleson,director of " Her Majesty's Opera," London,and, in 1877, Max Strakosch engaged Mme.Roze for an opera season in the UnitedStates ; which engagement she filled with

great success. In 1878 she was married to

Henry Mapleson,

SAINTON-DOLBY, Charlotte Helen, was bornin London in 1 82 1 , and gave signs of possess-

ing decided musical talent when still young.Her earliest instructress was a Mrs. Montague,from whom she received piano-forte lessons.

On the death of her father Miss Dolby deter-

mined to adopt the musical profession, and,in 1832, entered the Royal Academy of Music,where she first studied under Mr. J. Bennettand Mr. Elliott, -and then under SignorCrivelli. In 1837, so great was her promisethat she was elected a King's Scholar, al-

though her voice was still weak and not fully

developed. She remained at the Academyfor five years, and after leaving was elected

an honorary member of the institution.

Almost from the date of her first appearancein public until her retirement in 1870, MissDolby remained unrivaled as a singer of

oratorio and English ballads. The admirableskill with which she controlled a powerfulcontralto voice, the exquisite intonation, per-

fect enunciation, and noble declamation,which distinguished her singing, caused herto take a very high place, not only amongEnglish, but among European artists of the

present century. Madame Sainton haswritten many ballads and songs.

SAINT-SAENS, Camille. Born 1835 ; one of

the most noteworthy French composers ; haswritten symphonies, operas, and much else

;

is best known in this country by his "Phaeton"and his " Danse Macabre." The former is a

fine specimen of legitimate programme music,

i. ^., music which seeks to express a series of

emotions connected with a definite series of

incidents. He is also an excellent organist

and pianist.

SANTLEY, Charles, born at Liverpool, Feb-ruary 28, 1834, is the possessor of a baritone

voice of fine quality, extensive compass andgreat power. He quitted England for Italy,

1855, and studied at Milan under GaetanoNava; returned October, 1857, and tooklessons from Manuel Garcia. He appearedat St. Martin's Hall as Adam in Haydn's"Creation,'.' November 16, 1857, and onJanuary 8, 1858, sang the two parts of

Raphael and Adam in the same work at the

Sacred Harmonic Society. He first appearedat the Covent Garden, in the Pyne and Har-rison Company, as Hoel in " Dinorah," in

September, 1859, and sang in " Zampa," the" Waterman," and " Peter, the Shipwright,"

at the Gaiety, in 1870. His first essay in

Italian opera was at Covent Garden in 1862,

but later in the same season he transferred

his services to Her Majesty's Theatre. Hefirst sang at the meetings of the Three Choirs,

at Worcester, in 1863, at the BirminghamFestival in 1864, and at the Handel Festival,

at the Crystal Palace, in 1862, and has since

maintained his position as the first Englishsinger of his class ; and during a tour in the

United States, in 1871, reaped substantial

honors here also. Mr. Stanley's accomplish-ments are not confined to music. He hasadapted " Jaconde " to the English stage

and is an enthusiastic amateur painter. OnApril 9, 1859, he married Miss GertrudeKemble, daughter of John Mitchell Kemble,the eminent Anglo-Saxon scholar, and grand-daughter of Charles Kemble. She appearedas a soprano singer at St. Martin's Hall, in

the "Messiah," in December, 1857, but onher marriage retired from public life.

SCHIRA, Francisco, long resident and es-

teemed in London as composer, conductorand professor of singing, was born at Malta,

September 19, 181 5, received his early edu-cation at Milan, and was placed at the ageof nine (1824) in the Conservatorio, wherehe learned counterpoint under Basily, prin-

cipal of that institution. At 17, having com-pleted his studies, Francisco was commis-sioned to write an opera for the Scala, whichwas produced November 17, 1832. He thenwent to Lisbon, anS" after achieving musicalsuccess, left the Portuguese capital in Jan-

uary, 1842, and located in Paris; while at

the latter place he accepted the position of

director of music and orchestral chief at the

Princess Theatre, London. Francisco Schirais a composer of the genuine Italian type

;

as an instructor in singing he has alwaysmaintained a high position, many a public

vocalist having profited by his counsels.

STRAUSS, Johann. 1804-1849. Lived in

Vienna, and is known the world over by his

beautiful dance music. His sons, John, Jo-seph and Edward, are hardly less renownedfor their productions in the same field. John,indeed, has also written comic operettas.

His waltz, " On the Beautiful Blue Danube,"is the best known of his works.

SUDDS, W. F., born in London, England,1843 ; came to this country atthe age of seven;was a pupil of Eugene Thayer in organ-playing, and of Julius Eichburg in harmony,composition and violin playing. He is aprolific and talented composer, with greatfertility of invention. Sudds is the author of

many excellent songs ; a valuable organinstructor, entitled " National Guide to ReedOrgan Playing; " the largest and most com-plete piano instructor ever published in this

country, entitled "National School for thePiano-forte," which has secured flattering

testimonials from the most prominent mu-sicians in America ; also two very successful

collections of anthems. He is widely knownby his remarkably graceful and melodiouspiano pieces, in which class of compositionhe is said to be the most successful in Amer-ica, at least, since Gottschalk.

SULLIVAN, Arthur Seymour. Born 1842.

He was a pupil of the Leipsic Conservatory,and is a talented and accomplished musicianand composer. He has written works of con-siderable importance, including one or twooratorios, but is best known in this countryby his comic operas, " H. M. S. Pinafore,"" Patience," " Pirates of Penzance," etc.,

which have had most extraordinary runs.

SUPPE, Franz von, was born in Dalmatia in

1820. He is a conductor in Vienna, and hascomposed operas, symphonies, quartettes,

etc. He isbest known by his comic operettas,

of which "Fatinitza" and "The Beautiful

Galatea" have been given in this country.

THOMAS, Theodore. Born in East Frisia in

1835 ; has been a violinist and conductor in

New York since 1847. He developed andtrained the finest orchestra yet seen in Amer-ica, with which he made extended concert-

tours for many years. At the establishment

of the Cincinnati College of Music, in 1877.

he was called to be its director, but resigned

early in 1880 and returned to New York.

THURSBY, Miss Emma C, is a native of

Brooklyn, N. Y., and although still youthful,

holds a place in the affections of the Ameri-can people, stronger, perhaps, than is enjoyedby any other singer in the country. She is

a pupil of Mme. Rudersdorff and SignorErrani. Her voice is a pure, sweet, fresh

soprano, and her compass is from G in alt,

to A below the staff. For Sunday services in

the Tabernacle Church of New York, shereceived a salary of $3000. Strakosch agreedto give her ^100,000 for three years' singing

in concert and oratorio. She made her debutin Boston, in 1870, since which time she hasung in all parts of America and Europe

with great success. She is of petite figure,

with a very expressive face, and a mostcharming and modest bearing. She abso-lutely refuses to appear upon the stage in

opera. Her recent successes abroad havebeen all that her earlier career promised.

VERDI, Giuseppe, was born in Busseto, Italy,

in 1813. He is a prolific composer of Italian

operas, of which the best known in his earlier

style is "11 Trovatore," a work popular onaccount of its pleasing and effective melodies,

but poor in harmonic and contrapuntal treat-

ment and lacking in truth of dramatic char-acterization. In these points he has greatly

improved in his later opera, ''Aida," in which,as in his great Requiem Mass, he shows the

influence of the modern German School.

VICKERS, George M., was born in Philadel-

phia, Pa., January 8th, 1841. As a writer of

song-poems, this gentleman has no superior,

either in this country or in Europe. Hispoems possess a degree of grace and origi-

nality that not only gives them a peculiar

beauty, but also insures their almost imme-diate-popularity. He is a perfect master of

the art of versification, and few, if any, of

his writings fail to give evidence of his rare

poetical talent. Among his more notedpoems which have been set to music by pop-ular writers, may be mentioned " The Fish-

Mr.Vickers has written considerably more thantwo hundred poems, upon subjects rangingfrom the most humorous to those embodyingthe most touching patlios. His descriptive

pieces are universally admired.

WESTENDORF, Thomas P. Among thepromising composers of the United States is

Mr.Westendorf. He began his musical studies

in 1857, under Louis Staab, Professor of thePiano, and Henry Declerq, Professor of theViolin, with whom he made rapid progress as

a performer on both instruments, at the sametime acquiring considerable knowledge ofwind instruments. Later he was appointedteacher of the brass band and of singing in

the Reform School of Chicago. Here his

efforts were crowned with success, the band,of which he was the leader, becoming famousthroughout Illinois. As a composer, Mr.Westendorf might have dated back muchfurther than the time of his first publishedproduction, had it not been for his modesty,a quite natural trait with true genius. As asuccessful and versatile writer, he is equaledby few in this country. His songs and in-

strumental compositions have an exceedinglylarge sale, and seem to strike the popularfancy in an extraordinary degree.

WHITNEY, Mr. Myron W. The magnificentvoice and cultured style of Mr. Whitneyrender him a tower of strength on all import-ant musical occasions. As an oratorio singerhe has but few rivals and no superiors. Hislegitimate rendering of anything intrusted to

him is worthy of special eulogy, especiallyin an age when tradition is decried as beingunworthy of consideration in this age ofmusical progress. Mr. Whitney is a New

Englander, hailing from Ashley, Mass.,where, in 1 836, he first saw the light. He wasfirst heard at a Christmas performance of the" Messiah," given by the Handel and HaydnSociety in Boston. Since that time he hasassisted at almost every important oratorio

performance in this country, and enjoys awidely extended popularity, which he hasworthily earned. In 187 1 he visited England,and achieved a notable success in London,particularly at the concerts of the SacredHarmonic Society. He was also intrusted

with the part of Elijah at the BirminghamFestival in 1871, and "won golden opinionsfrom all sorts of people."

WINANT, Miss Emily. This young and rising

contralto is the fortunate possessor of a con-tralto voice of great beauty, and, thanks to

the careful training she received from the late

Mme. Rudersdorff, her method is all that

could be wished. She holds a position in thechoir of St. Thomas' Church, in New York,where her services are highly valued. She first

courted public opinion at one of Remenyi'sconcerts, in November, 1878, and has sincebeen frequently heard at the New YorkPhilharmonic and Symphony concerts andelsewhere, with tolerable frequency. Herengagement by the New York Festival Com-mittee was a graceful compliment to the youngartist.

HOW MUSIC IS MADE." The way to cook a rabbit is to first catch a

rabbit," etc., applies forcibly to the initial pro-cess of producing a musical composition in

sheet form; and it may be further added, thatmanuscripts worth publishing are as hard to

procure as the traditional rabbit. As all largemusic publishing concerns are constantly in

receipt of manuscripts sent for examinationand sale, it becomes necessary to inspect eachcomposition as soon as possible, otherwise theywould accumulate to such an extent that aseparate examination would be next to impos-sible. Forthis purpose is employed athoroughlyeducated and practical musician, one who notonly performs at sight, but who is also a masterof harmony and composition. After carefully

trying over each piece, and noting his opinionthereon, the result may be the selection of oneor two manuscripts out of perhaps fifty, tlie

balance being returned to their respectiveauthors marked "rejected." We will supposethat one of the pieces recommended by theinspector is a song. The publisher now holdsa manuscript which in the opinion of his

inspector is worth publishing, that is, it hassome point of excellence tliat might result in

the piece becoming populai'. The next step is

to read the letter sent by the writer of the song,and if the author's demands are deemed reason-able his terms are accepted and the song is

" put in hand," not, however, before the pub-lisher has first satisfied himself that the wordsare correct and suitable, and that the title is

not already in use. The manuscript is thentaken by the engraver, who, seated at his table,

begins the work of transferring to metal plates

the " copy " before him. Forthis purpose heemploys a hammer and a multitude of smallsteel dies, each one of which represents acharacter of music, in fact everything from abrace to a double bar, and from a grace noteto a "sixty-fourth," besides rests, slurs, cres-

cendos and a full set of the alphabet in various

sizes, such as agate, nonpareil, primer, etc.

Upon the table before him rests a slab of iron

about two feet square by two inches thickThis is the anvil (?) on which is laid the metalplate aforementioned. The latter is composedof white metal and is one-sixteenth of an inchin thickness ; the surface is highly polished andresembles burnished silver. With the aid oi

compasses, rules, and other peculiar tools, the

lines, bars, etc., are laid out, after which the

engraver proceeds to fill in the music andwords, and thus each plate is treated until the

song is finished.

While the music engraver is busy with his

manuscript and dies, the title engraver is notidle. By a process exactly similar to bank-noteor steel engraving this individual prepares thetitle, which, as an obvious necessity, must beentirely original in design, both in lettering andornamentation. The metal plates used for titles

are the same as those used for music.The music plates and title being finished,

proofs are taken from them and submitted to

the music inspector, who carefully examineseach page and makes the necessary correc-

tions, after which they are returned to the

engraver. The latter individual having madethe designated changes or additions, passes theplates to the superintendent of the press-room,where they are in turn given to a pressman.The press used is the same as employed in

steel-plate printing, and can, l:herefore, only beworked by hand. This process is necessarily^

slow and tedious, but it is the only method bywhich first-class sheet-music can be made.After the music is printed, the music sheets,

which are still wet, are hung upon racks to dry. ,

The drying process consumes about two or

three hours, when they are taken down, folded,

and put in a press, where they are usually left

over night. In the morning they are takenout, and we have before us a pile of elegantplate music, "the latest song of the season.""Plate" editions will always be preferred byall who appreciate music that can be easily

read; in fact to those accustomed to plate

work, "type music" seems like no music.

PROOF-READING.None but an author can appreciate the import-

ance of correct proof-reading ; and many's the

writer who has had occasion to regret the typo-graphical blunder that distorted or made vaguehis otherwise meritorious effusion. It is doubtful

if a writer lives, or ever did live, who has not

had such experience. No matter how careful

the professional proof-reader may be, he is boundto overlook errors in his proof-sheets. It maynot be in a misspelled word, which is the least

objectionable mistake that occurs, for the sense

is generally preserved; nor may it be a mis-

placed cap or lower-case letter, nor even a

"wrong font," for any and all of these will beinstantly detected by any proof-reader. Thegreat difficulty comes when a wrong word is

introduced, either by the incorrect reading of

copy by the type-setter, or by the omission or

addition of a letter, thus: the word band, byleavingoutthe^, becomes ««(/, a properly spelled

word ; and ba7Td with the d omitted makes ban;while band with the n wanting conveys a badidea of the author's intention. Now, fev/ proof-

readers would note an error of this latter de-

scription, as not one in a hundred reads his

proof to get the sense of the matter before him,

but merely runs over the column mechanically,

and passes over the mistake because it is arightly spelled word. Of course some copy is

hard to read, but as a rule any manuscript is

liable to meet with the same trouble.

WHAT IS SAID OF "NATIONAL SCHOOL-'-Coiitmued.

Maggie A. White, Marshall, Mich.I consider "National School" a comprehen

slve and thorough method of instruction, iieside

containing all that is good in older systems, it has

many special features, which render it admirablyadapted to the wants ol instructors and pupils.

lOLA A. Wright, Rock Creek, O.I like "National School," in many respects,

much better than those in general use. The grade

is well arranged and the musical selections fine.

Altogether, it is a good, practical method.

Max Mbybr & Bno., Omaha, Neb.We find "National School" a very thorough

and complete -work—being a good school for be-

ginnera as well as for advanced scholars. Weshall recommend it.

J. E EcKBB, Toledo, Ohio.'•National School" contains much that is

valuable, and undoubtedly will be appreciated bythe public, eepecially by those who will give it anactual trial.

Dubuque Mademy, Dubuque, Iowa.We flnj "National School" an excellent

method, aad tt Is certainly the best Instructor wehave seen.

Miss Josjiphinb Ybhl, San Francisco, Cal.

"National School" is the best work of its kind

that I havs sver seen. All the explanations are

complete and thorough and very easily understood.

The arrangement of the exercises and the selec-

tions are perfect, and one could not find a better

book for advanced pupils, as well as for beginners.

A. W. SicKNER, Wichita, Kas.I am a t< acherol considerable experience and

have used nearly all the leading methods, butnow I can conscientiously say that your "NationalSchool "is ahead of anything that I over used. I

hope it will meet with the success that it merits.

Charles E. Brat, Portland, Oregon."National School" coverd the whole ground

more nearly than any work I know of, and I takepleasure inVecommending it to the musical public.

For explicitness of detail it Is admirable, and it

also contains much matter never before IntroducedInto any work of the kiud.

J. J. DUNAN, Lima, Oho.I consider "National School" an improve-

ment over all others. All the teachers to whom 1

have shown it, approve the new ideas it contains.

C J. Shbppard, Marietta, Ohio.I think "National School" will supersede

most of the other methods.

Gkorob Jonas, Ziouisville, ICy.

I have used and examined " National School"and am much pleased with it. In the voluminousbooks published on the subject, it fills an impor-tant blank by the progressive manner in whichthe exercises and recreations are arranged. I

shall take great pleasure in recommending it toall teachers wno need a work of the kind.

Mrs. Jennie Seakle, Galesburg, III.

As a teacher, I must thank you for the greatwork which you have accomplished. It is sosimple, and at the same time so thorough, that achild cannot misunderstand it. You have takena weight from the shoulders of the teacher, andadded wings to the feet of the learner. I havelong felt the want of£U(;h a work and shall recom-mend it to all of my pupils. The Dictionaryalone is worth more than the price of fht entirework. Accept my congrntulations for the produc-tion ol a work that must prove eminently suc-cessful.

EMAii"tEL Marquis, Greencastle, Ind.I consider "National School ' admirably

adapted to its purpose. It embodies not only thebest elements of the best instruction books here-tofore published, but has, in addition, manyvaluable and useful features not to be met within any of the popular Piano Methods of the day.I should be pleased if this expression (from onewho has been actively engaged In teaching thepiano these 80 years) would aid in securing toyour work the popular recognition and extensiveadoption which it merits.

Mrs. E. Doane Perkins, Owosso, Mich."National School " is an excellent work—one

eminently calculated to furnish the materialupon which to construct a solid foundation for athorough musical education. I heartily recom-mend it to any one seeking for a Jirst-class in-struction book, and one may search long beforefinding its equal.

Mrs. B. F. Hepler, Fort Scott, Kas.I like " National School " very much. It sim-

plifies the rudiments—a very essential thing for«> young beginner.

W. T. GiFFB, liOgansport, Ind.The entire arrangement and selection of mate-

rial in "Nationil School" shows taste, experi-ence and judicial discrimination on the part ofthe compiler. I am especially pleased with theauthor's remarks on the " Evils of the Thorough-Base System of Playing." They are pointed,sensible and opportune. The whole book fur-nishes a greater amount of valuable matter forthe teacher ana piano student, for the price, thanany work of its class that 1 have yet s^en.

James A. Kerr, San Francisco, Oal.I candidly pronounce your "National School"

the best I have ever seen. It commence? in theplainest and simplest manner, and gradually pro-gresses in difficulty by a more scientific methodthan any other work I know, thus rendering it ad-mirably adapted lor a pupil of even ordinaryability. I cheerfully recommend and will, hero-fter, use it mysell.

ALLENT.

LoniB Zern, Kendallville, Ind,I take great pleasure in recommending "Na-

tional School." In all exercises and piece", theleft hand has as much to do as the right, which is

not the case with others. I heartily congratulateyou.

F. W. HoHMAN, Lincoln, Neb.After a Oiref'ul examination, I believe that

the author of "National School' has surpassedall his notable predecessors, while the many ex-

cellent features are hardly hinted at by others.Its exercises could not have been selected withbetter judgment, and 1 believe it is destined to

lead the world.

Mrs. F. W. Frain, Laingsburg, Mieh.I find "National School" a most excellent

and complete book of instruction. The arri*nge-ment is mel hodical and unique. Its advancementfrom the elementary part to that for advancedpupils is original and especially commeodable.

Jessib B. Hull, Lansing, Mich.I am very well pleased with "National

School"—especially the instructions in the usesof the " loud " pedal, your rudiments of harmonyand the study of thorough base,

Mrs. Frank Young, Ainboy, 111.

I am very much pleased with "NationalSchool," and am confident that it will meet thedemands of modern piano-forte instruction.

Mrs. W. C. Porter, Fort Soott, Kas.I regard " National School " as the most com-

plete Instruction book with whichlam acquainted.Its progression is most excellent. It also containsvaluable instruction in harmony, includingthorough-base.

Chas. Winter, Sacramento, Cal.I have carefully examined " National School,"

and find it a most valuable addition to the bestinstruction books now in use.

H. S. Krousb, Salt Lake City, Utah.I feel assured that "National School" will

satisfy a vacant want.

S. T. Church, Fargo, Dakota.I fiud that "National School" contains all

the prominent features designed for first-class in-

struction, and the additional advantages are sur-prising. After a twelve years' experience with thebest work of the past—" Kiohardson "—I am nowobliged to adopt the "National," on account ofits superior merit.

fi. D. Bullock, Jackson, Mich.I examined "National School," and was very

much pleased with it. Think it is just the bookthat teachers need. One of our leading teachersexpresses himself as well pleased with it.

Mrs. J. Bfllmtbr, Marshalltown, Iowa.I like "National School" very much. Have

shown it to our teachers and they are also pleasedwith it.

W. Sharp, Tipton, Mo.I and our music teacher are very much pleased

with the "National School."

EtCH. J. WiLMOT, Quincy, 111.

I have much pleasure in bearing testimony tothe value of ' National School." The plan of in-structing beginners iniho rudiments of time byunbarred phrases, to which the pupil shall addthe absent bars, is so excellent that one wondersit has not been adopted before. It contains agreater amount of information than can be foundin any one book.

Oscar Rose, St. Louis, Mo.I am v-'ry much pleased with "National

School" and intend to introduce it among myscholars.

S. F. Hopkins, Kalamazoo, Mich.Every subject is handled with such care and

elaboration, that nothing is left to be desired.The musical writing lessons recommend them-selves. The work is graded with care and eachnew difficulty explained as it is met. Part 3—Harmony—will please a great many who havebeen looking for this very thing so long. Pupilscannot study the different selections without de-riving great benefit. The Pronouncin? Diction-ary and Encyclopajdia are invaluable—the infor-mation given being most accurate and reliable.I tielieve that you have compiled a work whichonly needs to be examined to be appreciated.

A. W. Perry & Son, Sedalla, Mo.The demand for "National School " is unpre-

cedented and we can scarcely keep enouah instock to fill our orders. No one but a publisherknows the difficulty in starting a new work, butyou have achieved in a few months what mostpublishers are contented with afier patientlywaiting for years—success.

D. O. Evans. Youngstown, O.I think " Nai iSTial School " will become A-ery

popular, as it is just what teachers need.

Chas. De Oeston, PeVln, 111.

I find "National School" the rnost cleir andcomprehensive work that I have mad thj goodfortune to find in twenty (20) yeal.-s of teaching.

N. O. Smtser, Champaign, 111.

I am highly pleased with "National School."It is thoroughly progressive and comprehensive,and far In advance of any other American workof the kind. I am especially pleased with so full

an exposition of Harmuny, while the many otherexplanatory remarks, not found in other instruc-tion books, place it in actual value to th teacherand pupil, where I hope it will stand in numberof copies sold

in the very front rank,

[And many others, which the space will notallow us to print.]

Canada's Verdict:Morning Chronicl", Quebec.

A valuable work designed for amateurs aswell as professional pianists. On the subject of"loud pedal" alone,this work is of priceless valueto the young student.

Carl Martens, Toronto, Ontario.I can truly say that I see much to admire in

your "National School." 1 think it the bestschool of its kind, and it will certainly have a verylarge sale amonjist the more prominent teachersin Canada and the United States.

London (Ont.) Catholic Record.It will be found the most valuable aid ever

published.

VEvevement (French), Quebec, Canada.(Translation.)

Decidedly the Americans are insurpassableabove all when they do anything that unites theuseful with the agreeable, in quality not lessthan in cheapness. It is of the utmost value toteachers and professors, for its explanations aregiven with a neatness and precision that biingit within the Cumprehension of everybody. It is

without a rival.

J. W. Fetherston, Bellevile, Ontario.1 have carefully examined " National School,'*

and like it very much, especially the remarks, asthey, I hold, teach or rather compel pupils tothink for themselves. This, by the way, is theonly proper road to arrive atthe desired goal withany pupil. 1 admire the work and congratulatethe author.

Max Sterne, St. John, N. B.I have thoroughly examined the "National

School" and am exceedingly pleased with It.

Teaches adopting it can certainly advance theirpupils more steadily and correcilyin music thanthey can with any of the older methods. It is

undoubtedly the instruction book of the day andis b„und to take the lead.

Paul Letondal, Montreal, Quebec.Alter an attentive and conscientious examin-

ation, I am convirced that tiie "National Schoolfor the Piano, by W. F. Sudds," Is one of the mostcomplete, methodical, and disooursive works nowpresented to the public. 1st. With regard totechnique: It contains a seriesofexerclfes which,after careful ttudy. will enable the pupil to attain(he highest degree of perfection Iri execut.on.2d. One of its most prominent features is its les-

sons and studies with appropriate instructions forreading at sight which, if carefully lollowec bythe student, cannot fail in giving a great facility

in that much desired branch of musical education.3d. With regard to style and its interpretation:The author in avoiding vulgar melodies, or suchas were originally intended for the orchestra orfor the voice, has made choice of such selectionsor studies as were writlen for the piano-forte.The elementary course of harmony, as also thedictionary inserted in this work, will give to thepupil an amount of knowledge which cannot befound in any other method for the piano. All ofthese qualities have given to this book a classicalcharacter which recommends it to the use of bothteachers and pupils. I believe it destined to ren-der the greatest services to ihe musical world andto the public in general.

Sister Blessed Sacrament, Montreal, Quebec.Says she endorses "Natior'al School "in every

particular, both its routine of study, its remarks,and more especially the studies in harmony andreading from score. She finds it the most perfectsystem.

Montreal (Quebec) Daily Witness."National School" also includes instruction

in harmony and thorough-base, and a dictionaryof music and musicians.

Truth, Toronto, Ont." National School " is a new and comprehen-

sive instruction book for the piano. It containsalso a pronouncing dictionary of musical termsand phrases.

W. B. Millt'.r, Toronto, Ont."National School" is the most simple and

masterly method that we have in use at the pres-

ent time. The exercises are progressive andadmirably arranged. The dictionary of musicalterms is particularly serviceable and mui,h ad-mred. I wish you all success with your work.

Chas. Bohner, Toronto, Ont."National School " is the best work for both

teacher and students. No other book so clearlyexplainstherudimentsof harmony and thorough-base. The dictionary ,j musical terms is verycomplete. I can confidently recommend It to anyone who contemplates the study of the piano-forte.

Montreal (Quebec) Daily Star.

This is a bulky book, containing a pcffeclwealth of instruction in detail for the masteryof the piano-forte. Its author has designed It

not only fur those who desire to become profes-

sional i)ianists, but a.lsofor those who aim to be-

come accomp ished amateurs, while for those whoare coinpellsd to become self-taught players, hesays it will be found "the most valuable aid everliblifhed." The advantages are: it teaches thersL principles of music by writing lessons, which

is more effective in overcoming difficulties thanthe ordinary me' hod; it is more carefully graded;complete instruction in harmony and thorough-base, neglected by other works; last, but notleast, is included a dictionary of music, withproper pronunciation of names and musical terms,with biograph as of prominent ancient and modernuusiclans an . composers.

WALDTEUFELAs a writer of dance music, especially waltzes, Waldteufel is pre-

eminent, and fills, to-day, the position as a popular favorite, once occupied by

Strauss. His works are melodious, and the piano arrangements so admirably

adapted to that instrument as to be easily played, and yet retain many of

the orchestral efiects ; in this particular he has great advantage of his above-

mentioned competitor, whose adaptations for piano were frequently too

difl&cult to come into general use. Unlike other publications of the same

character, we have adhered strictly to the original form, and each composition

is coniplete, with introduction and coda—a plan too frequently neglected,

and yet veiy essential, for the additions oftentimes convey the whole story

or subject of the work.

GEMS OF WALDTEUFELis printed on an excellent grade of music paper—contains 192 full size sheet-

music plates, and is tastefully bound in half cloth. For the completeness of

Belections, we confidently refer to the

SONGSWTO-DATThis work is not a promiscuous or nasty compilation of vocal tunes,

gotten up to take place with the multitude of cheap books, whose only merit,

if any, is in their fine sounding titles ; it is a collection of beautiful songs,

each of which has been selected for its known and appreciated worth, and

with the sole intent of fui'nishing to the individual lover of scng a repertory

of music sufficiently varied in character to suit his mood, his taste and ability.

A glance at the table of contents will reveal a wealth of musical treasure

unrivaled by any other similar work published. The list of authors repre-

sented, and their well-known reputations, speak more eloquently in favor of

"SONGS OF TO-DAY," than anything that could bo said by the publisher,

rt is a book that is worthy a place in the library of every one interested in

vocal music, and as such it is offered to the public.

CASCADESimilar In style of publication and value of contents, to " Garland of Gems," Its com-

panion In vocal music. Great care has been given In the selection ol contents, and we

confidently recommend the book as the best oi Its class.

In addition to excellent music paper, printing and binding, "Cascade of Rubles"

appeals to all purchasers ol music in a most persuasive manner, viz., the cheapness, which

Is certainly remarkable, being published In a most attractive manner, and offered at one

cent per page.

The aggregate vain* of the same music, published in sheet form, amounts to exactly

$18.15.

Oarefol buyers will think the new form a decided advantage.
