Contemporary owner name in blue pencil on front fly faint soil mark on front board the lettering on the spine is still bright thus near fine in a fine example of the publisher's unprinted glassine dust jacket. The very scarce first issue of James Joyce's first trade book preceded by two broadsides. This is the first binding variant according to Smoot and Cahoon A3: "First variant: Thick laid end papers with horizontal chain lines. 16.2 x 11 cm. Poems in signature C well centered on page." Published in a total edition of 509 copies. According to booksellers Bernard Quaritch Bulletin 19 1984 only "fifty or a hundred" copies of the first variant were bound and issued in 1907. Contemporary presentation copies appear in the first binding and it certainly seems plausible that due to low demand only a small number of copies were bound in 1907. Elkin Mathews hardcover

Slocum & Cahoon A5. Originally published in 1907 in London. The first authorized American edition published in New York by B. W. Huebsch appeared three months after this Cornhill issue. "Although it is widely reported that the title refers to the sound of urine tinkling in a chamber pot this is a later Joycean embellishment lending an earthiness to a title first suggested by his brother Stanislaus and which Joyce by the time of publication had come to dislike . . . In Ulysses Leopold Bloom reflects 'Chamber music. Could make a pun on that.' In fact the poetry of Chamber Music is not in the least bawdy nor reminiscent of the sound of tinkling urine. In 1909 Joyce wrote to his wife 'When I wrote Chamber Music I was a lonely boy walking about by myself at night and thinking that one day a girl would love me.'" Wikipedia "As the title suggests Chamber Music is to be considered a set of songs rather than a collection of poems as Joyce clearly stated in a letter to the English composer Geoffrey Molyneux Palmer 15 July 1909: 'I hope you may set all of Chamber Music in time. This was indeed partly my idea in writing it. The book is in fact a suite of songs . . .' Besides Palmer a number of composers have set the poems to music including Samuel Barber."

1923réf. 1263HNew York: B. W. Huebsch 1923. 1st American Edition Stated. Hardcover. VG. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. Type: Book 37 pp. black paper hardcover bdg. with gilt-stamped titling on front board and blind-stamped on spine tec fore edge deckled. Chamber Music is a collection of poems by James Joyce published by Elkin Mathews in May 1907. The collection originally comprised thirty-four love poems but two further poems were added before publication "All day I hear the noise of waters" and "I hear an army charging upon the land". The present is the only American publication authorized by Joyce. Although it is widely reported that the title refers to the sound of urine tinkling in a chamber pot this is a later Joycean embellishment lending an earthiness to a title first suggested by his brother Stanislaus and which Joyce by the time of publication had come to dislike: "The reason I dislike Chamber Music as a title is that it is too complacent" he admitted to Arthur Symons in 1906. "I should prefer a title which repudiated the book without altogether disparaging it."
