fifth impression. English translations by Mrs. W.A. Young. Unpaginated, [60]pp, musical notation with lyrics in English and Chinese. Attractively bound bright blue cloth, pictorial upper cover stamped in silver 26.5 x 19.5cm. An attractive copy. An interesting bilingual collection of Chinese songs. The compiler has selected some of the pieces from Chinese music books but as his desire was to give exposure to a selection of old popular songs, which had not been previously published he went to temples, street-singers and "country folks" to collect the material. Though relatively well known songs he encountered difficulties as no two songs were sung in the same way so he opted to record the version that most appealed to him. During his research for this collection he also realised that there is "a distinct lack of songs which can be used as patriotic songs suitable for group singing and so in this volume new words have been adapted to the original airs. It is to be hoped that others will follow this lead." He also took "a second liberty" and rearranged a Christian hymn to a Buddhist chant" believing that the Christian community in China would benefit from more familiar old melodies being used in church services. …

Large 8vo, pp.[64], the first and last blank leaves used as pastedowns; lithographed music with text in English and Chinese; publisher's blue cloth lettered and decorated with bamboo leaves in silver on upper cover, slightly shaken, upper board creased.First edition, fourth impression, of a collection of twenty-five traditional Chinese songs compiled by the Chinese Christian leader Tsu-Jen Ku (18871971). In the preface Ku acknowledges that Chinese music is a sealed book to most people in the West, and hopes that this volume will serve to introduce them to one branch of Chinese music, popular songs of 'mountains and running brooks, of moonlit gardens birds and flowers' and of love. Because in China today 'there is a distinct lack' of patriotic songs, Ku has adapted new patriotic sentiments to some of the original airs; in No.10, for example, originally 'Ten Cups of Wine', 'in place of the old words, a song commemorating the Student Uprising on May Fourth 1919 is adapted to the music'. Some of the songs were taken from books while others were collected by Ku 'from temples, street-singers, and county folks'. 'You will hear the lament of slave girls, the cry of orphans, the wailing of beggars, the chanting of priests, and the soft crooning of mothers over their babies' cradles.' Each song is introduced by a brief paragraph of explanation. The idea for the book came from Dr Helena Rosa Wright, the family planning pioneer who worked for a time as associate professor of gynaecology at Shandong Christian University, and the English translations were supplied by Mrs W.A.Young of Mukden. Of the various impressions Library Hub finds copies at Bodley, the British Library, Edinburgh, and SOAS o nly. Language: Chinese.…
