MUSIC BOOKS FOR SCHOOLS.
The Welcome Cborus. ($1 or $9 per dozen.) By W. S. TILDEN.
This is a new and superior High School Song Book, with advanced elements, and a great
variety of music, secular and sacred, to be sung in one. two or four parts. Mr. Tilden's preyiou*
works have been highly approved.
Song Bells. (50 cts.) By L. 0. EMERSON.
No more attractive Sctiool Song Hook has for a Inn? time appeared. Tt is not graded, and'
will do for any class. Great variety of songs, subjects selected with great skill, and music is ot
the best.
Boccaccio.
Comic Opera, by SUPPE. English Text by DEXTER SMITH*
Price $2.60.
Mr. Smith has done a good work in freeing this fine and popular opera from objectionable-
words, and it is now in a state to be enjoyed by the best American audiences.
Sieber's Art of Singing and Vocal Culture. Price 50 cents.
Books for Vocal Training usually contain complete sets of exercises, and directions enough for-
the teacher—and no more. But this little book gives the " science " and reason for every step of
progress ; is a standard work in Europe, and has been well translated by A. W. DOHN. A most
practical and important essay.
