Publisher's Synopsis

Music-Study In Germany: From The Home Correspondence Of Amy Fay (1908) is a book written by Amy Fay, an American pianist and music student who travelled to Germany in the late 19th century to study music. The book is a collection of her personal letters to her family back home, detailing her experiences as a music student in Germany. Fay's letters provide a unique and intimate insight into the world of music education in Germany during the late 1800s. She describes her encounters with famous musicians and composers, such as Franz Liszt and Johannes Brahms, and shares her thoughts on their music and teaching methods. In addition to her observations on music education, Fay's letters also offer a glimpse into German culture and society of the time. She writes about her travels, her interactions with locals, and her impressions of German customs and traditions. Music-Study In Germany: From The Home Correspondence Of Amy Fay (1908) is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of music education, as well as for those interested in the cultural and social history of Germany in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
