The English Singers
Shellac Single: All Creatures Now Are Merry-Minded: Madrigal b/w Down In Yon Forest: Carol Roycroft Living Tone No. 156
East Aurora NY: The Roycrofters / Wm. H. Wise & Co. New York - Sole Distributors 1928. Unbound. Very Good. Original shellac 10" 78 rpm record. "All Creatures Now Are Merry-Minded" composed by John Bennet. "Down in Yon Forest" arranged by R. Vaughan Williams. Some rubbing and light scratches to both sides still very good lacking the case and sleeve. Originally issued as part of a 12 record set numbered 151 to 162 released by Roycroft along with the booklet Word Book of the English Singers' Music which provided information about each song. These are some of the first American recordings of what is now referred to as Early Music which is largely meant to represent European music of the 15th and 16th centuries though it can be expanded to include some Baroque era music but if you hit Bach you've gone too far. The English Singers first arrived in America in 1925 and caused a bit of a sensation as this old music was brand new to American audiences. Though their approach to Early Music would be criticized later due to advancements in our understanding of how the pieces are to be performed their efforts and the fruit they've produced are one of the reasons we have Early Music as a concept today.<br /> <br /> Complete sets are hard to come by and no one set is fully complete as issued because there were at least four alternate "B-Sides" issued No. 155 No. 156 No. 158 and No. 161. Combine this with the fact that Roycroft was a very small label that was only in operation for a few years and it's easy to understand why these records are so difficult to collect. This is evident in the handful of descriptions/holdings found in OCLC and Discogs with only the website 78 Discography having documented what appears to be a complete list of titles.<br /> <br /> Roycroft was founded by Elbert Hubbard in 1895 in East Auroa New York and was part of the Arts and Crafts movement. Not just a business Roycroft was a reformist community of artists and craftsmen whose work had a meaningful influence on American architecture and design. In addition to the workshops the Roycroft Campus also housed a press where many books were published including Hubbard's own book Little Journeys and partner publications such as The Buffalo Magazine for Arts. The record label was a very small part of the business and was only in operation from 1927 to 1930. The English Singers recordings may be the most well known of the Roycroft records.<br /> <br /> An uncommon and interesting piece of both American recording and Early Music history.

ROBERT BROWNING
PIPPA PASSES
NEW YORK: BARSE & HOPKINS 1900 VERY NICE LOOKING BROWN LEATHER COVER NO INTERNAL MARKINGS TIGHT TASSEL PAGE MARKER ATTACHED AND GOOD SHAPE. A DRAMA ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED 1841. NO DATE IS IN THIS BOOK. ESTIMATE 1900. Browning Robert 1812-89 English poet. His remarkably broad and sound education was primarily the work of his artistic and scholarly parents-in particular his father a London bank clerk of independent means. Pauline his first poem was published anonymously in 1833. In 1834 he visited Italy which eventually became his second homeland. He won some recognition with Paracelsus 1835 and Sordello 1840. Pippa Passes is a dramatic piece as much play as poetry by Robert Browning. It was published in 1841 as the first volume of his Bells and Pomegranates series in a very inexpensive two-column edition for sixpence and next republished in Poems in 1848 when it received much more critical attention. It was dedicated to Thomas Noon Talfourd who had recently attained fame as the author of the tragedy Ion. The author described the work as "the first of a series of dramatic pieces." A young blameless silk-winding girl is wandering innocently through the environs of Asolo in her mind attributing kindness and virtue to the people she passes. TERRIFIC PIECE OF HISTORY.

Byron George Gordon 6th Baron Byron 1788-1824. Poet. He succeeded to the barony and Newstead abbey in 1798.

ENGLISH SCHOOL 19th century
Fox Hunting Unkeneling Plate 1; Breaking Cover Plate 2; In Full Cry Plate 3; The Death Plate 4
London 1830. Aquatints coloured by hand. A fine complete series of four anonymous prints of hunting scenes possibly after the Alkens.<br/> <br/> The style and naming of these prints suggests an Alken origin for the series. Siltzer records a number of series by the Alken family in which the first plate is titled "Unkennelling." This title appears to be unique to them and supports the supposition that the present series are after the Alkens. Henry Thomas Alken was born into what became an artistic dynasty. He studied under the miniature painter J. T. Barber and exhibited his first picture a miniature portrait at the Royal Academy when he was sixteen. From about 1816 onwards he "produced an unending stream of paintings drawings and engravings of every type of field and other sporting activity. He is best remembered for his hunting prints many of which he engraved himself until the late 1830s.To many sporting art is "Alken" and to describe his work or ability is quite unnecessary." Charles Lane British Racing Prints pp. 75-76<br/> <br/> Cf. Siltzer pp.57-76. unknown
