PRESSER CO., Pub's., Phila., Pa.= + + + + + HOW TO USE THIS BOOK + + * * * * * + +This book is one of a series known as the CHILD'S OWN BOOK OF GREAT +MUSICIANS, written by Thomas Tapper, author of "Pictures from the Lives +of the Great Composers for Children," "Music Talks with Children," +"First Studies in Music Biography," and others. + +The sheet of illustrations included herewith is to be cut apart by the +child, and each illustration is to be inserted in its proper place +throughout the book, pasted in the space containing the same number as +will be found under each picture on the sheet. It is not necessary to +cover the entire back of a picture with paste. Put it only on the +corners and place neatly within the lines you will find printed around +each space. Use photographic paste, if possible. + +After this play-work is completed there will be found at the back of the +book blank pages upon which the child is to write his own story of the +great musician, based upon the facts and questions found on the previous +pages. + +The book is then to be sewed by the child through the center with the +cord found in the enclosed envelope. The book thus becomes the child's +own book. + +This series will be found not only to furnish a pleasing and interesting +task for the children, but will teach them the main facts with regard to +the life of each of the great musicians--an educational feature worth +while. + + * * * * * + +This series of the Child's Own Book of Great Musicians includes at +present a book on each of the following: + + Bach Grieg Mozart + Beethoven Handel Nevin + Brahms Haydn Schubert + Chopin Liszt Schumann + Dvorák MacDowell Tschaikowsky + Foster Mendelssohn Verdi + Wagner + + + + + [Illustration: Transcriber's note: + First page of illustrations: 1, 14, 15, 12, 11, 10, 13, 6] + + + + + [Illustration: Transcriber's note: + Second page of illustrations: 7, 8, 16, 9, 5, 3, 4, 2] + + + + + Robt.

He could make the music imitate the person. + +One day he said to them: This is the way the farmer walks when he comes +home singing from his work. + + [Illustration: No. 2 + THE HAPPY FARMER.] + +Some day you will be able to play a lot of pieces by Schumann that +picture the pleasantest things so clearly that you can see them very +plainly indeed. In one of his books there is a music picture of a boy +riding a rocking horse. + +Another of a little girl falling asleep. + +_A March for Little Soldiers._ (That is, make-believes.) + +And then there are _Sitting by the Fireside_, _What they Sing in +Church_, and a piece the first four notes of which spell the name of a +composer who was a good friend of Schumann's. + +This composer came from Denmark. + + [Illustration: No. 3 + NIELS GADE.] + +This is a picture of the house in Zwickau, Germany, where Robert +Schumann was born. + + [Illustration: No. 4 + SCHUMANN'S BIRTHPLACE.] + +Schumann was a strong healthy youth who had many friends and loved life. + + [Illustration: No. 5 + SCHUMANN AS A YOUTH.] + +What do you think the Father and Mother of Robert Schumann wanted him to +be when he was grown up? + +A lawyer! + +Robert was the youngest of five children, full of fun and up to all +kinds of games. He went to school and became especially fond of reading +plays. + +He also loved to write little plays and to act them out on the stage +that his Father had built for him in his room. So he and his companions +could give their plays in their own theatre. + +All the while Robert was taking piano lessons. + +Just before he entered the High School he heard a pianist who played so +beautifully that he made up his mind that he would become a musician. + +The pianist whose playing gave him this thought is one whose name you +will know better and better as you get older. + + [Illustration: No. 6 + IGNACE MOSCHELES.] + +There was lots of music making in the Schumann home, for Robert and all +his companions played and sang. And besides that, he composed music for +them. + +It must have been a pleasant picture to see all these German boys coming +together to make music. If we could gather together some American boys +who were alive at that same time, here are some we could have found: + +Nathaniel Hawthorne, who wrote for children, _Tanglewood Tales_ and the +_Wonder Book_. + + [Illustration: No. 7 + HAWTHORNE.] + +Then there was Longfellow, who was born in Portland, Maine. How many of +his poems do you know besides _Hiawatha_? + + [Illustration: No. 8 + LONGFELLOW.] + +And then we must not forget Whittier, who wrote many lovely poems. One +was about a little girl who spelled the word that her companion missed +in school and so she went above him in the class. + + [Illustration: No. 9 + WHITTIER.] + +And still there was another little boy only a year older than Robert +Schumann. He was born in a cabin. + + [Illustration: No. 10 + LINCOLN'S BIRTHPLACE.] + +This boy's name, as you can guess, was Abraham Lincoln. + + [Illustration: No. 11 + ABRAHAM LINCOLN.] + +So when you think of Robert Schumann, let us also think of Hawthorne, +Longfellow, Whittier, and Lincoln. + +They were all doing their best, even as boys, to be useful. + +Well, after all, Robert Schumann did not become a lawyer. He studied +music very hard. His teacher was Frederick Wieck. His teacher's +daughter, Clara Wieck, played the piano very beautifully. + + [Illustration: No. 12 + CLARA WIECK.] + +Papa Wieck, as he was called, was not very kind to Robert Schumann when +the young man confessed that he and Clara loved one another and wished +to marry. + + [Illustration: No. 13 + FRIEDRICH WIECK.] + +But after a while it all turned out happily and they were married. So +Clara Wieck became Clara Schumann. + +Here is a picture of them seated together. + + [Illustration: No. 14 + ROBERT AND CLARA SCHUMANN.] + +In the sixteen years that Robert Schumann lived after he and Clara Wieck +were married he composed lots of music for the piano, besides songs, +symphonies, and other kinds of compositions. + +He was a teacher in the Leipzig Conservatory. Among his friends were +Mendelssohn, Chopin, Brahms, and many others. + +Schumann is best known as a composer of music, although he was also a +teacher, a conductor, and a writer upon musical subjects. For many years +he was the head of a musical newspaper, which is remembered to this day +because of the great work he did in helping people to understand new +music and find out new composers. When he was a very young man Schumann +wanted to become a pianist, but he unfortunately used a machine that he +thought was going to help him play better. It hurt his hand so that he +was never able to play well again. Poor Schumann went out of his mind in +his last years, and died insane, July 29, 1856. + + [Illustration: No. 15 + CLARA SCHUMANN.] + +Clara Schumann lived forty years after Robert Schumann died. She was the +teacher of many students, some of whom traveled from America to study +with her. She, too, was a composer and a concert pianist who played in +public from the time she was ten years of age. + + + + + FACTS ABOUT ROBERT SCHUMANN. + + +1. Robert Schumann was born at Zwickau, in Saxony, Germany, on June 8, +1810. + +2. When Schumann was nine years old he heard the great pianist Ignaz +Moscheles play and resolved to become a great pianist. + +3. When Schumann was a youth he showed a gift for writing poetry. + +4. Schumann's father was a successful book-seller. + +5. All through his life Schumann was a great lover of the writings of +the German author, Jean Paul (whose full name was Jean Paul Richter). +Much of his music shows his high regard for that writer of fairy +stories. + +6. Schumann was twenty-one years old when he injured his hand and +learned that therefore he could not hope to be a pianist. It was then +that he made up his mind to be a composer. + +7. Schumann had enough means to live in comfort. He was not poor, as +were Mozart, Schubert, and some others. + +8. Robert and Clara Schumann had eight children, and some of Schumann's +best music was written to interest his children. + +9.

Robert Schumann was born at Zwickau, in +Saxony, Germany, on June 8, 1810.</p> + +<p>2. When Schumann was nine years old he heard +the great pianist Ignaz Moscheles play and resolved +to become a great pianist.</p> + +<p>3. When Schumann was a youth he showed a +gift for writing poetry.</p> + +<p>4. Schumann's father was a successful book-seller.</p> + +<p>5. All through his life Schumann was a great +lover of the writings of the German author, Jean +Paul (whose full name was Jean Paul Richter). +Much of his music shows his high regard for that +writer of fairy stories.</p> + +<p>6. Schumann was twenty-one years old when he +injured his hand and learned that therefore he could +not hope to be a pianist. It was then that he made +up his mind to be a composer.</p> + +<p>7. Schumann had enough means to live in comfort. +He was not poor, as were Mozart, Schubert, +and some others.</p> + +<p>8. Robert and Clara Schumann had eight children, +and some of Schumann's best music was written +to interest his children.</p> + +<p>9.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment.

Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + http://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + + +</pre> + +</body> +</html> diff --git a/35596-h/images/002.png b/35596-h/images/002.png Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index

PRESSER CO., Pub's., Phila., Pa.= + + + + + HOW TO USE THIS BOOK + + * * * * * + +This book is one of a series known as the CHILD'S OWN BOOK OF GREAT +MUSICIANS, written by Thomas Tapper, author of "Pictures from the Lives +of the Great Composers for Children," "Music Talks with Children," +"First Studies in Music Biography," and others. + +The sheet of illustrations included herewith is to be cut apart by the +child, and each illustration is to be inserted in its proper place +throughout the book, pasted in the space containing the same number as +will be found under each picture on the sheet. It is not necessary to +cover the entire back of a picture with paste. Put it only on the +corners and place neatly within the lines you will find printed around +each space. Use photographic paste, if possible. + +After this play-work is completed there will be found at the back of the +book blank pages upon which the child is to write his own story of the +great musician, based upon the facts and questions found on the previous +pages. + +The book is then to be sewed by the child through the center with the +cord found in the enclosed envelope. The book thus becomes the child's +own book. + +This series will be found not only to furnish a pleasing and interesting +task for the children, but will teach them the main facts with regard to +the life of each of the great musicians--an educational feature worth +while. + + * * * * * + +This series of the Child's Own Book of Great Musicians includes at +present a book on each of the following: + + Bach Grieg Mozart + Beethoven Handel Nevin + Brahms Haydn Schubert + Chopin Liszt Schumann + Dvorak MacDowell Tschaikowsky + Foster Mendelssohn Verdi + Wagner + + + + + [Illustration: Transcriber's note: + First page of illustrations: 1, 14, 15, 12, 11, 10, 13, 6] + + + + + [Illustration: Transcriber's note: + Second page of illustrations: 7, 8, 16, 9, 5, 3, 4, 2] + + + + + Robt.

He could make the music imitate the person. + +One day he said to them: This is the way the farmer walks when he comes +home singing from his work. + + [Illustration: No. 2 + THE HAPPY FARMER.] + +Some day you will be able to play a lot of pieces by Schumann that +picture the pleasantest things so clearly that you can see them very +plainly indeed. In one of his books there is a music picture of a boy +riding a rocking horse. + +Another of a little girl falling asleep. + +_A March for Little Soldiers._ (That is, make-believes.) + +And then there are _Sitting by the Fireside_, _What they Sing in +Church_, and a piece the first four notes of which spell the name of a +composer who was a good friend of Schumann's. + +This composer came from Denmark. + + [Illustration: No. 3 + NIELS GADE.] + +This is a picture of the house in Zwickau, Germany, where Robert +Schumann was born. + + [Illustration: No. 4 + SCHUMANN'S BIRTHPLACE.] + +Schumann was a strong healthy youth who had many friends and loved life. + + [Illustration: No. 5 + SCHUMANN AS A YOUTH.] + +What do you think the Father and Mother of Robert Schumann wanted him to +be when he was grown up? + +A lawyer! + +Robert was the youngest of five children, full of fun and up to all +kinds of games. He went to school and became especially fond of reading +plays. + +He also loved to write little plays and to act them out on the stage +that his Father had built for him in his room. So he and his companions +could give their plays in their own theatre. + +All the while Robert was taking piano lessons. + +Just before he entered the High School he heard a pianist who played so +beautifully that he made up his mind that he would become a musician. + +The pianist whose playing gave him this thought is one whose name you +will know better and better as you get older. + + [Illustration: No. 6 + IGNACE MOSCHELES.] + +There was lots of music making in the Schumann home, for Robert and all +his companions played and sang. And besides that, he composed music for +them. + +It must have been a pleasant picture to see all these German boys coming +together to make music. If we could gather together some American boys +who were alive at that same time, here are some we could have found: + +Nathaniel Hawthorne, who wrote for children, _Tanglewood Tales_ and the +_Wonder Book_. + + [Illustration: No. 7 + HAWTHORNE.] + +Then there was Longfellow, who was born in Portland, Maine. How many of +his poems do you know besides _Hiawatha_? + + [Illustration: No. 8 + LONGFELLOW.] + +And then we must not forget Whittier, who wrote many lovely poems. One +was about a little girl who spelled the word that her companion missed +in school and so she went above him in the class. + + [Illustration: No. 9 + WHITTIER.] + +And still there was another little boy only a year older than Robert +Schumann. He was born in a cabin. + + [Illustration: No. 10 + LINCOLN'S BIRTHPLACE.] + +This boy's name, as you can guess, was Abraham Lincoln. + + [Illustration: No. 11 + ABRAHAM LINCOLN.] + +So when you think of Robert Schumann, let us also think of Hawthorne, +Longfellow, Whittier, and Lincoln. + +They were all doing their best, even as boys, to be useful. + +Well, after all, Robert Schumann did not become a lawyer. He studied +music very hard. His teacher was Frederick Wieck. His teacher's +daughter, Clara Wieck, played the piano very beautifully. + + [Illustration: No. 12 + CLARA WIECK.] + +Papa Wieck, as he was called, was not very kind to Robert Schumann when +the young man confessed that he and Clara loved one another and wished +to marry. + + [Illustration: No. 13 + FRIEDRICH WIECK.] + +But after a while it all turned out happily and they were married. So +Clara Wieck became Clara Schumann. + +Here is a picture of them seated together. + + [Illustration: No. 14 + ROBERT AND CLARA SCHUMANN.] + +In the sixteen years that Robert Schumann lived after he and Clara Wieck +were married he composed lots of music for the piano, besides songs, +symphonies, and other kinds of compositions. + +He was a teacher in the Leipzig Conservatory. Among his friends were +Mendelssohn, Chopin, Brahms, and many others. + +Schumann is best known as a composer of music, although he was also a +teacher, a conductor, and a writer upon musical subjects. For many years +he was the head of a musical newspaper, which is remembered to this day +because of the great work he did in helping people to understand new +music and find out new composers. When he was a very young man Schumann +wanted to become a pianist, but he unfortunately used a machine that he +thought was going to help him play better. It hurt his hand so that he +was never able to play well again. Poor Schumann went out of his mind in +his last years, and died insane, July 29, 1856. + + [Illustration: No. 15 + CLARA SCHUMANN.] + +Clara Schumann lived forty years after Robert Schumann died. She was the +teacher of many students, some of whom traveled from America to study +with her. She, too, was a composer and a concert pianist who played in +public from the time she was ten years of age. + + + + + FACTS ABOUT ROBERT SCHUMANN. + + +1.

Schumann was twenty-one years old when he injured his hand and +learned that therefore he could not hope to be a pianist. It was then +that he made up his mind to be a composer. + +7. Schumann had enough means to live in comfort. He was not poor, as +were Mozart, Schubert, and some others. + +8. Robert and Clara Schumann had eight children, and some of Schumann's +best music was written to interest his children. + +9.
