Studies In Modern Music - Second Series - Frederick Chopin, Antonin Dvorak, Johannes Brahms.
By W.H. Hadow
Published by Seeley & Co Limited: London 1910

" Studies in Modern Music (Second Series) by W. H. Hadow is a thoughtful and eloquent work of early twentieth-century musical criticism, combining aesthetic theory with composer-focused study. In the opening section, Hadow outlines fundamental principles of musical form, appreciation, and structure, offering readers a clear framework for understanding how music communicates meaning beyond technique alone. His prose is measured and scholarly yet accessible, reflecting his background as an Oxford academic and his aim to bridge the gap between formal musicology and the cultivated listener.

The second half of the volume is devoted to extended critical essays on Frédéric Chopin, Antonín Dvořák, and Johannes Brahms, each treated as a distinct artistic personality shaped by national character, personal temperament, and historical circumstance. Hadow explores Chopin's lyricism and poetic sensibility, Dvořák's synthesis of national idiom and classical form, and Brahms's structural rigor and intellectual depth, positioning all three within the evolving landscape of modern music. This book would appeal especially to students of music history, pianists and composers, admirers of Romantic-era music, and collectors of early music criticism and theory."
