About the Book

First published in 1882, the Riemann Musiklexikon was a huge undertaking by the German musicologist, attempting to a create a complete dictionary of music and musicians. Previous owner's inscription to the half-title reads "Der lieben Clara Bauman, in erinnerung anden deutschen Aufenthalt von K Karpf".

Condition

A very good copy. The rebinding has been done to a high standard and the binding is secure. There is some spotted foxing to the pages but the book remains in strong readable condition.
