RECENT NOTICES.

"We have now used the first edition in our own congregation for some two years, and it grows upon our good graces. The edition will thus be seen to be very complete indeed, while it exhibits on every page the great care, thought, and taste, bestowed on it by its earnest editor.'-Bible Class Magazine.

'Mr. Curwen's most admirable tune-book; with a preface full of valuable information and suggestive hints. . . . . . If anybody succeeds in making a Psalmody a "people's service," it will be Mr. Curwen; and if any book is emphatically a people's book, it is this.'-Nonconformist.

THE

HE CHILD'S OWN HYMNBOOK. Price One Penny. Improved Edition (50,000 a-year.) In cloth, at 2d. This includes the Hymns and Chants,' published separately at One Halfpenny.

A GRAMMAR of VOCAL MUSIC.

With a Course of Lessons and Exercises, founded on the Tonic Sol-fa Method, and a full Introduction to the Art of Singing at Sight from the Old Notation. Edited by JOHN CURWEN. Second Edition. Rewritten and greatly enlarged, price 2s. 6d.

The method lays aside, in its earliest stages, the notation of music in common use. But it does this only for a short time, while the voice, ear, and understanding are developed in connexion with the real nature of music itself. It then becomes the easiest, the quickest, and the most intelligent introduction to the use of the old notation and and the stores of classical music.

Besides the usual elements of music, the work includes suggestive lessons for the teacher, and questions for examination,—the principles of Melody, and of Thorough Bass, -a new plan of Chanting, and discussions on the chief points of Psalmody revival.
