The article focuses on the book "Famous Composers and Their Works," edited by J.K. Paine, Theodore Thomas, and Karl Klauser. The scope and object of this work can be best explained by comparing it with two other standard publications - Grove's "Dictionary of Music and Musicians," and Champlin and Apthorp's "Cyclopaedia of Music and Musicians." In "Famous Composers" the plan has been followed of devoting separate articles only to the sixty-five composers most eminent in their art, the minor composers and performers bang more briefly discussed in special long articles, the Netherlands. Masters, Music in Italy, France, Germany, Russia, Hungary, and England.
