In France, Mme. Audley has written some good biographies, notably the
lives of Beethoven and Schubert and some articles on Bellini. Across the
Channel, Constance Bach has done some successful work in editing the
letters of Liszt and Von Buelow. Two English women, Mrs. F. J. Hughes and
Mary Maxwell Campbell, have entered the speculative field by trying to
draw analogies between harmonies and colours, but this theory can never
have any real basis in scientific fact. In America, the work of Helen
Tretbar and Fanny Raymond Ritter is well known. Mrs. Mary Jones has
devoted her energies to a book on the musical education of the blind,
but the best work in this direction is that of Caroline Wiseneder in
Germany.

In closing, it may not be amiss to express the wish that the
compositions of women composers could be heard more frequently than they
are at present. There is no doubt that some of our quartette clubs would
find much to interest themselves and their audiences among the works of
the famous musical women. According to Nero, music unheard is
valueless, and all musicians would rejoice to see the fullest possible
value thus placed, by frequent performance, upon Woman's Work in Music.

THE END.
