Synopsis
Excerpt from Catechism of Musical Instruments: Guide to Instrumentation
The compilation of the Musical Catechisms has been carried out on the same plan as the author adopted in his Musical Lexicon; viz to present con~ cisely, in a manner readily intelligible, and especially synoptical, everything relating to musical knowledge which it is chiefly important to know, and thus in place of the widely'-circulated little works, out wardly of similar aspect, but as to their actual con tents, occupying much too low a level, to create small pocket manuals, from which, in every moment of doubt, speedy enlightenment is to be obtained. No! Every musician knows, énz' wizai every musician anglii io know, s/wn/a' ée fanna' in a flinsim/ Caiec/n'snz.
