18671710London: Joseph Lilly. Very Good with No dust jacket as issued. 1867. 1st Edition. First Printing. Hard Cover. Original publisher's brown cloth gilt lettering on spine blind-stamped decorative front and rear panels brown endpapers fore and bottom edges deckle. Accompanied with an Introduction and Illustrative Notes. Four additional items are included with the book: 1 An autograph letter signed written on both sides of a sheet from the publisher Joseph Lilly dated August 21 1867 and sent from Covent Garden explaining how he acquired the rights to the current book as follows: "Dear Sir I gave L750 for the folio volume of the Old Ballads & Broadsides at the sale of the library of George Daniel Esq at "Sotheby's" Auction Rooms in July 1864. I do not know the date of Mr. Daniel's birth. He was about 75 years old at the time of his death. I think he was born in Newgate or . I think his father or mother's family was in the worsted trade. If I can get a portrait of him I will send it to you. Yours truly signed Joseph Lilly." 2 Another note is tipped-in to the front endpaper in a different hand as follows: "George Daniels Ballads With autograph note of Mr. Lilly the publisher stating that he gave upwards of L700 for the original. sic and Scarce portrait short Memoir of Mr. Daniel __ - Only a comparative few copies printed." 3 Also laid-in is the portrait of George Daniel referred to in Mr. Lilly's note and 4 a short somewhat poetic memoir of him curiously captioned "Memoir of D._ _G." The note on the endpaper describes the portrait and memoir as scarce as there were only a few copies printed. NB: A large number of the 19th Century acting editions are promoted as containing "remarks by D. _ _G" i.e. George Daniel. These remarks are usually two to three pages in length and contain relatively non-critical comments about the play and its production. These prefaces consist primarily of a synopsis of the play but occasionally they contain interesting anecdotes that shed some light on both the cultural and theatrical landscape of his time. Fortunately in a few of the scripts the critic's nom de plume is forgotten and he is identified as George Daniel 1789-1864. He was a descendant of a Huguenot family that settled in England in the 17th century. Even as a young man he was a prolific writer mostly of poetry but at the age of 18 he completed Dick Distich a novel in three volumes. Yet it would be as a poet that Daniel was to gain his first taste of pseudonymous fame as "P___P___ Poet Laureat." P___ P___ Poet Laureat's first poem was a "sprightly squib in verse" entitled "R_y_l Stripes; or a Kick from Yar_th to Wa_s; with the particulars of an Expedition to Oat_ds and the Sprained Ancle." It was an account of the horse-whipping given to the prince regent by Lord Yarmouth for "making improper advances" to his mother-in-law. The poem was immediately and simultaneously suppressed and highly popular. Daniel's original manuscript is kept in the British Museum. Broadly satirical pieces such as the poem described above brought Daniel into the company of "a number of literary friends" most notably Charles Lamb and Robert Bloomfield. At the same time his exposure to the theatrical milieu of London began to grow and he befriended some of the greatest actors of the time. The value that the actor John Kemble placed on his friendship was demostrated by a "white satin" bill of fare the actor presented to Daniel in the green-room at Covent Garden. This occurred on the night of Kemble's final performance there on June 23 1817. This memento is also the property of the British Museum. In 1818 Daniel made his debut as a playwright with a piece entitiled "Doctor Bolus." It was successfully presented at the English Opera House and at the Lyceum. He followed that one year later with "The Disagreeable Surprise" and in 1833 with "Sworn at Highgate." Yet it seems that George Daniel's greatest contribution to the arts of 19th century London is in neither his poetry or his plays but rather as an editor and book collector. Between 1823 and 1831 thirty-nine volumes of "British Theatre with Remarks Biographical and Critical printed from the Acting Copies as performed at the Theatres Royal London" were published by John Cumberland and edited by George Daniel. Fourteen more volumes were added by 1832. Later he also edited similar publications of acting editions for T.H.Lacy and Davison. The University of Washington a collection of many acting editions with remarks by Daniel from a variety of publishers. Bates refers to Daniel as a book collector one whose estate brought great wealth to his descendants when it was sold. His collection included a first folio of Shakespeare David Garrick's cane a cassolette or carved casket made out of the mulberry-tree from Shakespeare's garden as well as many other books and artifacts from the Elizabethan age. For ten days starting on July 24 1864 his entire collection was sold at auction. His heirs received 15865 pounds and 12 shillings. One of his greatest friends it seems was the artist Robert Cruikshank with whom he collaborated on many of the acting editions as well as on other publications. Daniel's last work was called "Love's Last Labour Not Lost" which contained recollections of both Charles Lamb and Cruikshank. " Dennis Barnett University of Washington.

200427858Middleton WI: A-R Editions Inc. Near Fine with No dust jacket as issued. 2004. First Edition. First Printing. Soft Cover. 0895795574 . Publisher's glossy card wraps. The purpose of this edition is twofold: to make available to scholars and performers an unexplored repertoire by composers of the first rank Alessandro Scarlatti and Francesco Gasparini and at the same time to reveal the importance of the musical establishment at the basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore Rome with which they were associated. In the case of Scarlatti who was chapel master of the basilica from 1707 to 1709 this volume adds to the small portion of his sacred music that is available in modern editions. Gasparini did not serve as chapel master of the basilica but he had a very close relationship with it. From 1725 to 1727 he was master of the "Salve" a private chapel of the Borghese family within the basilica. This volume is the very first to present sacred music of Gasparini in a modern edition. Contents: Messa per il Santissimo Natale I-Rsm 73/14 Alessandro Scarlatti Kyrie Gloria Credo Sanctus Agnus Dei Messa breve e concertata a cinque voci I-Rsm 73/12 Alessandro Scarlatti Kyrie Gloria Credo Sanctus Agnus Dei Messa a quattro voci concertata I-Rsm 117/42 Francesco Gasparini Kyrie Gloria Credo Sanctus Agnus Dei Messa a quattro voci concertata I-Rsm 117/43 Francesco Gasparini Kyrie Gloria Credo Sanctus Agnus Dei UPDATE: Messa a quattro voci concertata I-Rsm 117/42 Francesco Gasparini: Kyrie Due to an unfortunate computer-production error the pitches in measures 6-10 of the vocal bass part are one step too high see the continuo line for the correct pitches. .
