Show moreFirst edition of this standard work of reference for musicians and scholars alike. The wealthy French-born musicologist and painter Baron Rodolphe d'Erlanger (1872-1932), a naturalised Brit of German-American descent, turned his interests to oriental studies and founded the artists' community at Sidi Bou Saïd. His lasting achievement is his present six-volume study of the history, theory, and repertory of Arabic music. Rodolphe d'Erlanger lived to see the publication of its first volume; his helpers Manoubi Snoussi, Henri Georg Farmer, Baron Carra de Vaux, Ali Darwish, and Ahmed El-Wafi completed the remaining volumes throughout a period of nearly three decades. - A clean, wide-margined copy.
