Philip James Meyer, Snr [Philippe-Jacques Meyer, 1732-1820], after William Reeve [1757-1815]
Robert Birchall, London, undated [c1800]
Early printing. Disbound from a larger work. 33 x 24.5cm. 5pp.
Duncan Gray & Lewie Gordon, a piece for harp and piano, arranged from William Reeve's Oscar & Malvine (though Reeve had to finish this work after it was started by Covent Garden's house composer, William Shield, who left abruptly). It was first performed in 1791, this piece would have been published between 1791 and 1819, which was when the publisher, Robert Birchall, was at his premises at 133 New Bond Street.
As mentioned, and as is usual for music of this age, the sheets are disbound. There is some age-related toning but the score remains readable and the plate marks are visible. There is some edgewear to the pages' fore-edge but otherwise this remains a good early printing.
