Musical Grammar e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The design of the following Work is, to compress in a small volume, the leading princi ples of Practical Music. From the analogy which exists between Music and Language, the Author has presumed to adopt a classification first suggested by the German Theorists, and to entitle the whole a Musical Grammar. He has endeavoured, by Examples selected from the best Authors, and intermixed with Musical Characters, to render the instructions more satisfactory than if they were merely verbal and he only regrets that, in many in stances, they could not be made more exten sive, without injuring the due proportion of the parts and the portable size of the book.
