As a preface to this work the composer has paid special attention to the explanation of Legato, Staccato, and Portamento Touch, Study of the Scale, Scale Fingering:, etc. Several little pieces and duets are given under the various headings, making the studies specially interesting to the pupil.

Talks with Piano Teachers, will be placed on the market in February or March, 1897. Th e wor k is writte n b y EMM A WILKI N S-GUT -MANN, at present one of the faculty of the Ameri-can Conservatory of Music, Chicago, and for a time a pupil of Oscar Raif and Th. Leschetizky in Germany. Calvin B. Cady and Julius Klauser are also cred-ited for many of the ideas set forth in this work. TALK S WIT H PIAN O TEACHER S is just what its title implies. It is not a piano method in any sense, but full of the most helpful suggestions to the young teacher or to those of limited experience. Mrs. Wilkins Gutmann does not narrow her suggestions down to the plane of single ideas ; does not give them in the meaning that they are the only ones and must be followed to the letter, but, on the contrary, endeavors (and does it suc-cessfully) to offer her suggestions in a way that will lead teachers to think for themselves and to devise ways of their own if the suggestions offered do not seem to fit the case. It can be stated positively that to most teachers of the pianoforte, and espe-cially to those of limited experience, this work will prove a mine of helpful ideas and valuable information. How often does the teacher get a pupil who presents a new case of difficulty in hand-ling and is in despair to know what to do with him. We can safely say this book will be sure to suggest a way out. Mrs. Wilkins-Gutmann in this work shows that she has been an extremely close observer, not only from cases offered in her own large experience in teaching, but in absorbing to the fullest extent the ideas of those with whom she has studied, and even of those with whom she has come in brief contact. We know of no other work at all like this, and certainly none which covers the ground so extensively and comprehensively. The subjects treated are : i 1 Some Essentials in Music. Ear Training. Time and Rhythm. Finger Training. Phrasing. Memorizing. The Use of Pedals. Reading. The book also contains a large list of material for teaching and a table of musical terms and forms. TALK S WIT H PIAN O TEACHER S will be a book of about 100 pages, bound in flexible cloth, and will be listed at $1.00 retail. The net price to teachers will be 80 cts. To all who send cash with order before Feb= ruary 1, 1897, w e will send the book, postage paid, for 50 cents. Clayton F. Summy Co., Publishers, 220 Wabash Avenue, Chicago.
