A History of the Pianoforte and Pianoforte Players (Classic Reprint)

Editors Preface This work does not profess to be so much a literal translation as a somewhat free version of Dr Bie sD asK lavier. The author, writing as he does for aG erman public, naturally uses a more philosophic style than would be generally intelligible in England. A vailing themselves, therefore, of Dr Bie skind permission, theE ditors, with a view to making the book more acceptable toE nglish readers, have allowed themselves considerable liberty both in omission and in addition. For all portions of the text which are enclosed in square brackets they hold themselves responsible. The footnotes, except a few which are specially marked, have been added by Dr Naylor. E. W. N. E.
