 PREFATORY NOTE 
 
 The "musical renaissance" movement is placing ever increasing 
 treasures of olden time music before us in the form of "Denkmaler" 
 and similar, more or less, monumental publications, edited by com- 
 petent musical scholars. Thus the old masters, of music are again 
 accessible to libraries which could not and can not acquire them in 
 the very costly and scarce original editions, and this remark applies 
 for obvious reasons to practically all American libraries. 
 
 While therefore the evolution of modern music may be fairly well 
 reconstructed through the medium of these modern editions of old 
 music, it is entirely different with the old books on music in which 
 there lies stored such a great wealth of historical suggestion and fact. 
 They are not accessible in reprint, if we except certain works by 
 standard authors — I mention at random Altenburg, Agricola, St. 
 Augustine, Bach, Blankenburgh, Boethius, Diruta, Glarean, Haw- 
 kins, Mattheson, Parfaict, Praetorius, Quantz, Ramos de Pareja, 
 Schlick, Virdung, Zacconi. Confronted by this fact, the Library of 
 Congress, immediately after the reorganization of the Music Division 
 in 1902, undertook systematically to collect the old books on music 
 in the original (because practically, only available) editions. In the 
 short space of ten years it was, of course, impossible to acquire every 
 rare book of moment and in some instances this was due less to 
 rarity than to prohibitive cost. Fortunately, a few such books 
 are available either in modern reprints at the Library of Con- 
 gress, or they found their way years ago, when prices were less 
 exasperating, to other American libraries, principally the Boston 
 Public, the New York Public and the Newberry Library of Chicago. 
 It would be unsafe to assume that an old book on music is not to be 
 found in America because it happens to be wanting here in the largest 
 American collection of the kind. 
 
 Possibly, if fortune favors us, certain annoying gaps in our own 
 collections, annoying because of the otherwise comprehensive character 
 of the collections, will gradually disappear. But, whether or not 
 fortune will so favor us, it was felt that the publication of a catalogue 
 of the old books on music already in the Library of Congress — prob- 
 ably more than a third of the entire output before 1800 — had become 
 advisable in the interest of musicology at home and abroad. One 
 point, however, should not be overlooked. It has not been the 
 policy of the Library of Congress to collect every or even many edi- 
 
 3
 
 4 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS 
 
 tions of a rare book, much less every known translation. The mat- 
 ter embodied in the edition usually decided our choice of edition. 
 Nor did first editions without distinguishing matter tempt us, merely 
 because they were Jlrst editions. Such a complete representation of 
 the typographical history of a book may be and is a legitimate desid- 
 eratum in special collections, but is not necessarily an essential in a 
 general collection as planned by the Library of Congress. 
 
 This catalogue is practically the work of Miss Julia Gregory of the 
 Catalogue Division, and, with revisions and certain modifications, 
 represents the catalogue cards prepared since 1902. The adoption of 
 the Anglo-American code of rules some years later will account for 
 occasional slight variations in form between earlier and later entries. 
 Suggestions that would naturally be offered from time to time by the 
 chief of the Music Division, in whose custody the books are kept, 
 have not materially affected the character of Miss Gregory's work. 
 He assumes, however, the full responsibility for the form of this 
 book, and for a few minor deviations from the code of "Catalogue 
 rules, compiled by Committees of the American Library Association 
 and the (British) Library Association," published 1908 with the 
 modifications in force in the Catalogue Division of the Library of 
 Congress. In case of doubt as to the meaning of a collation, etc., the 
 user of the Catalogue is referred to that publication. 
 
 To avoid misunderstanding, it may be stated that the entries have 
 as a rule been restricted to books dealing exclusively or in an essential 
 degree with music. Many of the latter are not shelved in the Music 
 Division, but elsewhere, and this accounts for classification symbols 
 other than M, ML and MT to be found in this catalogue. Books dealing 
 only incidentally with music, such as Forkel, for instance, enumerates, 
 have been excluded for practical reasons, though their incidental 
 musical matter may possess a greater scientific value than treatises 
 devoted exclusively to music. Finally, a subject index has been 
 dispensed with after mature reflection, principally because the old 
 books do not lend themselves satisfactorily to modern subject head- 
 ings, and because a really useful subject index would have involved 
 analytical labor of such magnitude as to be clearly out of proportion 
 to its usefulness for the musicological expert, the person for whom 
 alone it could possess a practical value. At the end of the volume 
 will be found an "Index to anonymous works, including references 
 to special contents" as compiled by me, and entries for books received 
 too late for insertion in the main alphabet.

 Dedicated to Mile. Jeanne Eleonore Wolff; dedication signed "A." Has been 
 attributed to a certain Fraulein von Freudenberg, a young girl, pupil of David

 the supposition that the author was of mature age and was the music teacher of 
 Mile. Wolff. In the British museum catalogue the work is ascribed to J. F.

 Ms. note on fly-leaf: Taken from his Work3, Paris, 1662, 2 vols, folio. This 
 "Discours" was (first?) printed by Me/senne, to whom it was addressed, in his

 looked. (Signed "J. E. M.," i. e. James E. Matthew)

 The lawfulness, excellency and advantage of instrumental music.

 sense entirely plain) of the Lawfulness, excellency and advantage 
 of instrumental music in the public worship of God, but chiefly of 
 organs. Philadelphia, A. Steuart, 1763.

 Title taken from the old L. of C. printed catalogue. The pamphlet itself is mis- 
 placed and could not be found for recataloguing. 
 
 Apparently this is not a bona fide second edition of the pamphlet ' ' The law- 
 fulness and advantage of instrumental musick in the public worship of God . . . 
 By a Presbyterian" (Philadelphia, W. Dunlap, 1763. 38 p.) but a satirical 
 reply. Compare Sonneck's "Francis Hopkinson and James Lyon," 1905, p. 
 131-132.

 Musick's monument; or, A remembrancer of the best practical 
 musick, both divine, and civil, that has ever been known, to have been 
 in the world. Divided into three parts. The first part, shews a 
 necessity of singing psalms well, in parochial churches, or not to sing 
 at all; directing, how they may be well sung, certainly; by two sev- 
 eral ways, or means; with an assurance of a perpetual national-quire; 
 and also shewing, how cathedral musick, may be much improved, and 
 refined. The second part, treats of the noble lute . . . directing the 
 most ample way, for the use of the theorboe . . . Shewing a general 
 way of procuring invention, and playing voluntarily, upon the lute, 
 viol, or any other instrument; with two pritty devices; the one, 
 shewing how to translate lessons, from one tuning, or instrument, to 
 another; the other, an indubitable way, to know the best tuning, 
 upon any instrument : both done by example. In the third part, the 
 generous viol ... is treated upon; with some curious observations, 
 never before handled, concerning it, and musick in general. By Tho. 
 Mace . . . London, Printed by T. Radcliffe, and N. Thompson, for 
 the author, 1676.
