  • The Americas in European Music Encyclopedias
    The Americas in European Music Encyclopedias Part 1 ENGLAND (ANO SCOTLAND) Thomas Busby ( 1755-1838) compiled the first music lexicon reprinted in the United States, A Complete Dictionary of Mwic (Philadelphia: G.M. & W. Snider, 1827). Continental precedents would have permitted Busby's a1luding to American lndian music (Jean-Jacques Rousseau, 1768) or mentioning New World composers whose names were circulating in Europe by the 1790's (José Mazza). Busby did neither. lnstead his geographic biases permitted his snubbing even Spain, mother of American colonies. In the uxiv + 331-page "fourth edition with additions and improve· ments" of his A Dictionary of Mwic (London: Printed for Richanl Phillips, 1817), Busby offered these definitions (pages 45, 52, 246-247). CANARJES. 1ñe name of an old dance, of which we have a sample in PurceU's opera of Dioc/esian. lt is a sprightly air of two strains; the time, three quaven in a bar, the fll'St pointed. None of the foreign airs are distinguished by any name analogous to this; we have, therefore, rason to con­ clude that the Can aries is of English invention. CHACONN'E. (French.)

NEW YORK Copyright 1961 by Frederick Ungar Publishing Co., Inc. First published 1930 /?o/ Printed in the United States of America Library of Congress Catalog Card No. 60-53364 TO GEORGE GERSHWIN (or the "Rhapsody in Blue/' the "Concerto in F," "An American in Paris/' and not least for his unaffected friendship Introduction This is a book that needed to be written, and we are all grateful to Dr. Goldberg for having written it. American popular music has become a very important part of American life; it has reached, indeed, as appears from the chapters upon Ragtime and Jazz, into the hearts of many European countries. It is one of the most colorful aspects of the American scene and, as the American Society of Authors, Composers and Publishers attests, it is getting into the class of Big Business. Tin Pan Alley, in a word, is a unique phenomenon, and there is nothing in any other country of the world to compare with it. New York, being the musical and theatrical center of the nation, where most songs and stage acts are made, naturally gave rise to the Alley of the Tin Pans.
