Annals of Music in America: A Chronological Record of Significant Musical Events
Henry Charles Lahee, a Boston writer on music, compiled this chronological record of musical events in America from 1640 to the time of its publication in 1922. Year by year it notes the landmarks: the first books of music printed in the colonies, the arrival of the first pipe organs, the founding of choral and orchestral societies, the first American performances of important operas, oratorios and symphonies, and the debuts of noted singers and players. Short essays introduce the periods into which Lahee divides his story, and an index of compositions makes the book easy to consult. It is a handy reference for the growth of musical life in the United States. It is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
