Book Description

Excerpt from Baker's Biographical Dictionary of Musicians From living musicians information has been obtained, wherever possible, through personal correspondence. Comparatively few letters have remained unanswered. In such cases the editor was obliged to gather what information he could from various sources more or less reliable, a process in which much valuable time was consumed - rather, wasted. Despite all Vigilance, the present edition undoubtedly contains mistakes. Any corrections or suggestions tending to the improvement of the next edition will be gratefully received, and should be addressed to the editor, in care of the publishers.
