TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE
The musical files for the musical examples discussed in the bookhave been provided by Jude Eylander. Those examples can be heard byclicking on the [Listen] tab. The scores that appear in the originalbook have been included as “jpg” images.
In some cases the scores that were used to generate the music filesdiffer slightly from the original scores. Those differences are dueto modifications that were made by the Music Transcriber during theprocess of creating the musical archives in order to make the musicplay accurately on modern musical transcribing programs. These scoresare included as PDF images, and can be seen by clicking on the [PDF]tag in the HTML version of the book.
Obvious punctuation and other printing errors have been corrected.
The book cover has been modified by the Transcriber and is includedin the public domain.
