This article presents information about books related to music. The books are "Voice and Its Natural Development," by Herbert Jennings; "The Philosophy of Music," by Halbert Hains Britain; "Unfigured Harmony," by Percy C. Buck and "School of the Piano Pedal," by W. S. B. Mathews. The book by Herbert Jennings touches only those points in training the voice for public speaking and singing that are absolutely essential to obtaining clear enunciation and to protecting the vocal organs from fatigue and overstrain. The book by Perry C. Buck is an attempt to teach writers how to acquire the sense of style and build on their own initiative. What a student most needs to know is how to harmonize melodies and to this problem in its advanced and elementary stages, the greater part of this treatise is devoted.
