Hardcover. Condizione: Good. 1st Edition. A set of 36 part-songs on one volume that had previously been published as a series of twelve parts between March 1850 and February 1851. One-page foreword by editor, Edwin George Monk (1819-1900), that describes the background to the book. Twenty of the songs were published for the first time in this collection with seven of them having been awarded a prize by a panel of judges brought together for this purpose. J Alfred Novello had undertaken the publication to encourage the performance of older and new English part-songs in response to the popularity of German part-songs following Mendelssohn's visits to England in the 1840s. A notable song that made it first appearance in this collection was 'All Among the Barley' by Elizabeth Stirling (1819-1895) - being awarded the second prize - and went on to become one of the most popular pieces performed by amateur choirs into the beginning of the 20th century. It became so well known that versions of 'All Among the Barley' became well established in folk music. This volume is regarded as the 'first series' of Novello's Part-Songs with the 'second series' comprising more than 500 songs being published between 1869 and 1885. Individual songs in the series continued to be published until 1944. Other songs in this volume are: Awake! the starry midnight hour (Mendelssohn), Bestir ye, bestir ye (G A Macfarren), Brawling Boreas blows (E G Monk), Come , heavy sleep (J Douland[sic]), Come away, come away, death (G A Macfarren), Dream the dream that's sweetest (R P Stewart), Fairies long the wings have folded (P Winter), Fine knacks for ladies (J Douland[sic]), Fresh from couch (F W Berner), From glassy blades (H R Bishop), Good morrow, fair ladies (T Morley), Is there a land?
