Publisher's Synopsis

Music-Study In Germany: From The Home Correspondence Of Amy Fay (1908) is a book that offers a fascinating glimpse into the musical education of an American woman in Germany during the late 19th century. The book is based on the letters that Amy Fay, a talented pianist, wrote to her family back home in the United States while she was studying music in Germany. Through her letters, Fay provides a detailed and vivid account of her experiences as a music student in Germany, including her interactions with famous musicians of the time, her struggles with the German language, and her observations of German culture and society. The book is divided into chapters that cover different aspects of Fay's musical education, such as her studies with the renowned pianist Franz Liszt, her attendance at concerts and operas, and her experiences at music schools and conservatories. 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, the life of a female musician in the late 19th century, or German culture and society during that time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
