A  \Vord  of  Advice 

TriE  tendency  to  quick  dancing  and  as  a  conse- 
quence fast  playing — railings  to  wnick  all  ama- 
teurs are  inclined — snould  oe  carefully  guarded 
against,  and  wnen  this  tendency  readies  tlie  stage 
wnere  capable  musicians  find  it  extremely  difficult  to 
play  fast  enougn  to  suit  some  modern  dancers,  it  requires 
no  argument  to  convince  us  tnat  the  dancers  and  not  tke 
musicians  are  at  fault.  Tke  fatiguing  nature  of  IrisL 
Step-dancing,  graceful  and  decorous  thougn  it  be,  is  its 
greatest  dra-w-back  even  m  Ireland. 

Music  nas  at  all  time  tne  first  claim  on  our  affec- 
tions, out  if  its  beauty  and  melody  must  be  sacrificed  to 
tne  'wnims  of  "whirlwind  dancers,  neither  Irisk  Dance 
Music,  nor  Irisn  Step-dancmg,  can  expect  to  regain  or 
retain  popular  favor. 

Xne  harmonization  of  traditional  Irisn  music,  easy 
as  it  may  appear,  is  not  unattended  with  difficulties;  and 
while  most  modem  musicians  render  Irisn  Airs  accept- 
ably, few  of  tnem  nave  a  true  conception  of  the  peculiar 
rhythm  or  saving  of  Irish  Dance  Music,  ^^ithout  wnicn 
it  loses  its  cnarm  and  spirit.  For  tnose  reasons  -we  can 
understand  "why  their  best  efforts  at  arrangement,  though 
technically  correct  according  to  musical  ethics,  leave  much 
to  be  desired. 

It  IS  confidently  hoped  that  the  simple  accompani- 
ment to  tne  numbers  in  tkis  Selection,  by  one  possessed  of 
the  ability  to  give  tnis  class  of  tunes  proper  musical 
expression,  -will  prove  to  be  a  welcome  innovation.      F.ON.

The  Complete  Works  of  Captain  Francis  O'Neill 


The  Music  of  Ireland 

A  large  volume  of  nearly  400  pages;  1850  numbers  classified 
but  not  harmonized.     Beautifully  engraved  and  bound 

All  the  favorite  tunes  (some  in  varied  settings)  are  included, 
with  many  that  are  equally  entitled  to  that  name,  but  which 
were  not  locally  known  before.  A  full  appreciation  of  all 
the  treasures  contained  in  the  book  would  take  a  volume  as 
large  as  itself — Rev.  Richard  Henebry,  Ph.  D. 

No  volume  bearing  on  Irish  melody  published  since  the 
days  of  Thomas  Moore  has  received  such  general  and  favor- 
able recognition  as  the  magnificient  work  "The  Music  of 
Ireland"  by  Col.  Francis  O'Neill,  General  Superintendent  of 
of  the  Chicago  Police  Force — Col.  John  F.  Finerty. 

The  Introduction  to  the  book  stamps  him  at  once  a  keen 
student  of  musical  history  and  a  writer  of  more  than  ordinary 
accomplishments — The  Cork  Sun,  Ireland. 

To  describe  adequately  this  sumptuous  quarto  volume  of 
1,850  airs  in  clear  music  type  suitable  for  violin,  flute,  or 
Union  pipes  would  seem  flattery,  but  let  me  at  once  state 
that  nowhere  is  there  procurable  such  a  large  collection  of 
folk  tunes  many  of  which  are  here  printed  for  the  first  time 
— W.  H.  Grattan  Flood  in  Ulster  Journal  of  Archaeology. 

"O'Neill's  Music  of  Ireland" — No  one  has  ever  done  any- 
thing like  this  for  Irish  music — Dublin  Weekly  Freeman. 
Price,  Cloth,  gilt,  tS.OO. 

The  Dance  Music  of  Ireland — 
1,100  Gems 

Suitable  for  Violin,  Flute,  Cornet,  Clarinet,  Irish  Pipes  and 

Other  Solo  instruments.     A  Neat  Volume  of 

174  Pages 

This  volume  is  the  first  collection  of  Irish  Dance  Music 
exclusively  ever  published  in  America.  In  it  can  be  found 
all  the  common  dance  tunes,  as  well  as  hundreds  of  others 
taken  from  old  manuscripts  and  books  long  out  of  print, 
while  many  of  the  choicest  were  noted  down  from  the  tradi- 
tional playing  of  skilful  Irish  musicians. 

A  result  of  many  year's  patient  and  persistent  research 
this  selection  has  been  classified,  and  separately  indexed  as; 
Double  Jigs,  Single  Jigs,  Slip  or  Hop  Jigs,  Reels,  Hornpipes, 
Long  Dances  and  Set  Dances,  and  Miscellaneous.  The  intro- 
duction is  interesting  and  instructive. 

PrJce--Cloth,  $2.75;   Paper,  $2.00. 

Popular  Selections  from  The  Dance 

Music  of  Ireland.    52  Numbers — 

Classified  and  Arranged  by 

Selena  O'Neill,  Mus.  Bac. 

Price — Paper  Cover,  60c. 

CNeill's  Irish  Music,  For  Piano  or 
Violin 

400  Selections — Airs,  Jigs,  Reels,  Hornpipes,  Long  Dances, 

Marches  and  Miscellaneous.     Arranged  by 

Selena  O'Neill,  Mus.  Bac. 

{None  of  them  included  in  Moore's  Melodies) 

The  arrangement  is  well  suited  to  the  spirit  and  rhythm 
of  Irish  Music  which  is  not  infrequently  smothered  by  elabor- 
ate harmonization. 

For  novelty  and  variety,  nothing  like  it  ever  printed. 

This  collection  introduces  many  delightful  airs  and  tunes 
in  varied  settings  hitherto  unknown  to  the  public,  although 
some  of  them  were  copied  from  raffe  books  printeW  In  the 
18th  century. 

It  is  a  tastefully  gotten  up  volume  of  192  pages  on  which 
no  pains  were  spared  in  making  it  by  far  the  best  of  its 
kind. 

Price — Cloth,  $2.75;    Strong  Paper  Cover,  $2.00. 


Waifs  and  Strays  of  Gaelic  Melody 

Comprising  Forgotten  Favorites,  Worthy  Variants,  and 
Tunes  not  previously  Printed.    With  Numerous  Anno- 
tations of  Historical   and   Descriptive   Interest 
Arranged  by  Selena  O'Neill,  Mus.  Bac. 

Ireland  and  Irish  music  will  be  forever  in  debt  to  you 
for  preserving  and  perpetuating  this  great  and  precious  in- 
heritance of  our  race — Rev.  F.  P.  Donnelly,  S.  J. 

How  wonderful  to  have  added  still  another  trophy  to  your 
splendid  achievement  especially  as  this  last  one  seems  so 
unique  and  interesting.  It  is  surely  a  triumph  of  accomplish- 
ment— Annie  W.  Patterson,  Mus.  Doe. 

This  work  contains  finer  music  than  any  of  your  works. 
The  Jackson  tunes  in  it  I  never  saw  before  and  I  am  de- 
lighted with  them — Geo.  A.  H.  Leech,  San  Francisco. 

To  my  mind  the  Preface  to  Waifs  and  Strays  Is  as  good 
a  piece  of  prose  writing  as  I  ever  read — level-headed  teeming 
with  information  tersely  set  down,  and  displaying  infinite 
research — M.  Flanagan,  North  Wales. 

Your  new  book — Waifs  and  Strays — has  much  interested 
me,  and  it  may  gratify  you  to  know  that  your  publications 
have  been  a  great  help  to  Sir  Charles  Stanford  and  myself 
who  are  engaged  in  our  fourth  production — Alfred  Perceval 
Graves,  London. 

Price — Cloth,  $2.75;    Strong  Paper  Cover,  $2.00 

Irish  Minstrels  and  Musicians 

With  Numerous  Dissertations  on  Related  Subjects 

Capt.  O'Neill  Is  to  be  congratulated  upon  this  volume, 
which  is  a  mine  of  carefully  collected  information.  He  has 
already  given  us  four  volumes  of  Irish  music  in  which  there 
are  hundreds  of  Irish  airs  nowhere  else  noted — Alfred  Per- 
ceval Graves,  London. 

An  exhaustive  history  of  Irish  music,  undoubtedly  the  most 
thorough  treatise  of  the  kind  in  existence — Edwin  L.  Shu- 
man;   Chicago  Herald. 

This  handsome  volume  at  once  by  its  comprehensiveness 
and  authority,  takes  a  standard  place.  Without  a  doubt  it  is 
the  mose  elaborate  and  authoritative  history  of  Irish  music 
yet  written — The  Musical  Leader,  Chicago. 

"Irish  Minstrels  and  Musicians"  is  a  work  of  marvelous 
labor  and  research,  and  nothing  of  interest  is  omitted.  It 
i3  a  truly  monumental  work,  and  the  author  cannot  be  too 
highly  praised  for  it — The  Tuam  Herald,  Ireland. 

By  gleaning  in  a  wide  field,  a  field  embracing  the  four 
quarters  of  the  world,  and  by  exercising  a  nice  discrimina- 
tion, Capt.  O'Neill  has  been  enabled  to  place  before  his 
readers  a  most  delightful  and  interesting  work.  He  is 
master  of  a  style  remarkable  for  terseness  and  lucidity — The 
Irish  Times,  Dublin. 

To  put  in  the  market  a  volume  of  500  pages,  handsomely 
bound,  and  profusely  illustrated  must  have  involved  immense 
expenditure.  Capt.  O'Neill  has  done  his  part  by  collecting 
and  admirably  setting  out  a  fund  of  information  available 
nowhere  else — Freeman's  Journal. 

Irish  Minstrels  and  Musicians  by  Capt.  Francis  O'Neill  of 
Chicago,  is  without  doubt  his  greatest  achievement.  Be- 
sides being  a  work  on  music,  it  is  a  piece  of  valuable  litera- 
ture and  full  of  human  interest — 7'he  Irish-American,  New 
York. 

Capt.  O'Neill's  Irish  Minstrels  and  Musicians  is  undoubt- 
edly the  most  thorough  treatise  of  the  kind  in  existence.  The 
volume  is  profusely  illustrated — Saturday  Evening  Post,  Bur- 
lington, Iowa. 

Price— Cloth-gilt,   $3.00. 

Irish  Folk  Music — A  Fascinating  Hobby 

With  Some  Account  of  Allied  Subjects

compilation  of  biographical,  and  historical  details  regarding 
the  bards,  and  bardic  orders  of  old  Erin,  the  old  harpers  as 
well  the  bagpipe  and  perfor^pe^s  upon  it.  The  illustrations 
are  particularly  choice  and  attractive — Annie  M.  Patterson, 
Mus.  Doc.  Journal  of  the  Ivernian  Society.
