“ELSON’S POCKET MUSIC DICTIONARY,” by Louis C. Elson, professor of theory of music in the New England Conservatory of Music, and published by Oliver Ditson Company, Boston, is an excellent little work just from the press, which will unquestionably meet with the enthusiasm and approval of all teachers and students of music. It expresses in a plain, concise manner the meaning of all the terms employed in music, with their national origin and pronunciation. It also contains a list of abbreviations in common use, the elements of notation, and gives in the latter part of the book a large biographical list of musicians, and artists of the musical world. The book is bound in cloth, in convenient pocket size. Price, 50 cents. Order from the Oliver Ditson Company.
