About This Item

A Lyon, Chez Cartoux..., 1819. FIRST EDITION of this translation. 8vo, 192 x 116 mms. 200 x 130 mms., pp. [iv], 64, 12 folding engraved plates of musical illustration, followed by 17 blank leaves and 2 leaves with notes in a contemporary hand in French, contemporary sheepskin, black morocco label; some musical illustrations in pencil on the plates, title-page a little creased and foxed. Asioli (1769 - 1832) was largely self-taught, but he also studied in Parma, Bologna, and Venice. He was appointed to the post of director of the new music school in Milan in 1808, and it is from this period that the work derives. He had to leave the post in 1814. This work was first published in Italian as Principi Elementarai di Musica in 1809. The popular question-and-answer form seems to have worked very well as a pedagogy for learning music theory. OCLC locates copies in Newbery, California Berkeley, San Francisco State; and Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin. There is also an issue with title-page dated 1820: Princeton, Eastman; Koninklijke Bibliotheek. Copac locates only a third editon of 1840 in NLS.
