La Musique Pour Tous, Souvenirs of Celebrated Composers (Edition De Poche)
New York G. Schirmer/ W.H. Oakes, Hard Cover Fair 16mo 6" - 7" tall
No date, but c. 1850. A collection of twelve 16-page "souvenirs" of famous composers--Beethoven, Mozart, Weber, Chopin, Hayden, Mendelssohn, Rossini, Meyerbeer, Schubert, Bellini, Donizetti, and De L'Isle--bound together. Each "souvenir" is has a decorative cover page bearing a lithograph of the relevant composer, followed one or more short pieces of engraved piano music (listed below). The binding is quarter-leather over green marbled boards, with green marbled endpapers--but the front board is missing. The spine, which has a small amount of gilt decoration, reads simply "musical photographs." Aside from the loss of the front board, the binding is in good shape. The pages are unmarked and have very little foxing. The music included is: Beethoven: Six Valses; Mozart: L'Adieu et la March Turque; Weber: L'Invitation a la Valse; Chopin: Marche fubebre et Mazurka-Favorite; Haydn: Hymne Autrchien et Menuet du Boeuf; Medelssohn: Song d'une Nuit d'ete, Nocturne et March nuptiale; Rossini: Mose, Il Barbiere,Cenerentola, semiramis; Meyerbeer: Crociato, Air, Cavaline et Marche; Schubert: L'Adieu, La Serenade, L'eloge des l'armes, La Jeune Mere et Les Plaintes de la Jeune Fille; Bellini: Norma, Puritani, Puritanim, Sonnambula, et Pirata; Donizetti: Elisire damore, Parisina, Anna Bolena; De L'Isle: La Marseillaise (Pour piano seul et avec chant).
