Description

Musicians and Music-lovers and Other Essays - Gyan Books

About The Book: Musicians and Music‑Lovers, and Other Essays (1894) by William Foster Apthorp is a rich collection of critical writings exploring the relationship between musicians and the audience. Serving both as an introduction and deep dive, it covers topics such as Bach’s legacy, Handel’s scores, Meyerbeer, Offenbach, modern classicists, and reflections on music criticism and science. Apthorp argues that amateurs often respond emotionally to surface effects, like "quality of sound," while trained musicians appreciate underlying structure, thematic development, and the art form itself . These thoughtful, articulate essays blend technical insight with cultural perspective, making the work valuable for both scholars and enthusiasts.
