F. ROOT. This is emphatically a new book in a new field. It provides instruction and mu- sic, not only for the PIANO-FORTE, but also for the things that should be studied with it viz: the VOICE and HARMONY--not harmony through the eye, but harmony through the ear; not dry calculations, but living and beautiful forms. It goes on the plan that the pupil should know as well the chords and harmonies he is in while playing and singing, as he does the key or kind of time; and moreover it proves that these things can be done by preparing well for each subject, and then by adapt- ing the instruction, and the music to the state of the pupil, and making the steps succeed each other in true progres- sive order. <pre> The while book may be divided into </pre> two kinds of lessons--the one for musical culture and the other for muscular culture. Not that there is no practice for the mus- cles in the former, nor exercise for the mu- sical taste in the latter, but each is devoted mainly to its own object. Those lessons which are designed to awaken develop, and strengthen a love for music, and with which are imparted a knowledge of time, tune, and expression, (Rhythmics, Melod- ics, and Dynamics,) are written in many pleasant and tuneful forms, and are called exercises, pieces, songs, etudes, solfraggios,etc. while those which are simply for the de- velopment and strengthening of the mus- cles of the fingers, hands and vocal or gans, do not pretend to be pleasant or tune- ful, but depend upon the benefits they confer in the way of flexibility and exe- cution for their popularity. These lessons are called TECHNICS, and embrace five finger exercises, scales arpeggios and miscellaneous exercises of many kinds and forms. <pre> The contents of the book may be summed </pre> up as follows: Instrumental exercises for reading music, the acquirement of musical knowledge, and the cultivation of taste, numbered but bearing no other names than the topics they illustrate and teach....................................221 Vocal exercises and solfaggios for similar purposes......................................48 TECHNICS....................................419 Divided as follows--Five Finger Exercises..78 Scales, Major and Minor.................115 Arpeggios, Minors and Minor.......... 116 Vocal............................................45 Miscellaneous ...............................35 Piano lessons that may be played as duets and trios..............................44 Chromatic exercises ......................21 Songs...........................................39 Exercises in Thorough Base..............24 Pieces for the Piano........................43 Of the foregoing numbers, are used for the study of transposition..........120 These, when played according to directions, increase the lessons to the book to ................................1485 Price $4.50 Sent, postpaid, on receipt of the market price. To those who would like to have an opportunity of examining this book before purchasing, we will send, post- paid, on receipt of ten cents, an elegant royal quarto pamphlet, con- taining fourteen specimen pages of the same, selected so as to give an idea of its general appearance, as well as some description of its plan and contents.

We shall meet, but we shall miss him There will be one vacant chair; We shall Lin- ger to ca-ress him While we breathe our evening prayer. When a year a-go we gathered, Joy was in his mild blue eye, But a gold - en cord is severed, And our hopes in ruin lie. 2. At our fire - side, sad and lonely, Often will the bosom swell at re- mem-brance of the sto-ry How our no-ble Willie fell; How he strove to bear our banner Thro' the thickest of the fight, And up- hold our country's hon-or, In the strength of of manhood's might. 3. True they tell us, wreaths of glo-ry Ev- er more will deck his brow, But this <pre>soothes the anguish on-ly Sweeping o'er our hearstrings now, Sleep to </pre> day, O early fall-en, In thy green and narrow bed, Dirges from the pine and cypress Mingle with the tears we shed. 184405 <hr /> CHORUS.

A scene in the battle of Murfreesbro, by Geo. F. Root; price 50 cents. Good for baritone or tenor singers with strong voices that possess declamatory and descriptive powers. The accompaniment requires a strong hand, on account of the long tremolo with which the piece commences. Over the stream they went into the fight. Cutting their way on the left and right. Babylon is Fallen Song and chorus, by Henry C. Work; price 25 cents. Some singers have told us that they preferred this song to its companion--"Kingdom is Coming." It certainly becomes more and more appropriate as the strongholds of the South fall into our hands and the soldiers of "African descent" join in the fight. Look out dar now! we'se a gwine to shoot! Look out dar now! don't you understand? Johnny Schmoker. A chorus arranged by B. F. Rix; price 50 cents. All say that for a company of singers, whether young or old, nothing of its kind has ever been published like this. It contains the most irresistible fun, both of song and motion, while at the same time it is unexceptionable in all respects. Rub a dub a dub das ist mein drummel, Pilly will win das ist mein fifie. Tic nic noc fas ist triangle, Bom, bom, bom, das is mine trombone etc, Just before the Battle, Mother. Song and chorus, by Geo. F. Root; price 25 cents. Key of B flat. Tender and beautiful. Just before the battle, mother, I am thinking most of you, While upon the field we're watching, With the enemy in view; Comrades brave are round me lying. Fill'd with thoughts of home and God, For well they know that on the morrow, Some will sleep beneath the sod. Sleeping for the Flag. Song and chorus, by Henry C. Work; price 25 cents. Touching and tender, of deep interest to those whose brothers are resting on the battle field. When our boys come home in triumph, brother, With the laurels they shall gain; When we go to give them welcome, brother, We shall look for you in vain. We shall wait for your returning, brother, Though we know it cannot be; For your comrades left you sleeping, brother, Underneath a southern tree. FOR SCHOOLS, ACADEMIES, JUVENILE CLASSES. SILVER LUTE BY GEO. F. ROOT PRICE 35 CENTS. O, come you from the battle field? A dialogue duet, for soprano and tenor, by Geo. F. Root; price 25 cents. This is a scene between a soldier who, during his three years' absence, has changed from a boy to a man, and his old mother who does not at first recognize him. This is found interesting and effective either in concert or parlor. "O come you from the battle-field, and soldier can you tell About the gallant Twentieth and who are safe and well? Oh, soldier, say my son is safe, for he is all my care, And you shall have a mother's thanks, a widow'd mother's prayer. The Old Brown Cot. Song and chorus, by T.H. Tanner; price 25 cents. A beautiful poetic and musical description of many a "dear old home." These words are set by some other person. Should you write for this, specify Tanner's copy. It stood beside the running brook, Whose waters turn'd the noisy mill And close beneath the tall old oak, That nodded on the sloping hill, The woodbine creeping o'er the walls; The sunshine on the grassy plot; How beautiful were they to me When home was in that old brown cot. Daisy Deane. Song and chorus by J. R. Murray; price 25 cents. Fresh and beautiful as the "meadow and the flowers," that our young soldier so pleasantly describes --a very sweet though simple melody. "Twas down in the meadows, the violets were blowing, And the spring-time grass was fresh and green; The birds by the brooklets their sweet songs were singing When I first met my darling Daisy Deane. Within the sound of the Enemy's Guns. A remembrance of Gettysburg. Music by Geo. F. Root, price 50 cents. For a base voice, obligato accompaniments, about as difficult as the "Ivy Green," and in something of the same style. Within the sound of the enemy's guns, Within their sound are we; A gallant band of patriot sons, Fighting the battles of Liberty. A MONTHLY MUSICAL PAPER THE SONG MESSENGER EDITED BY HENRY C.

We shall meet, but we shall miss him There will be one vacant chair; We shall Lin- ger to ca-ress him While we breathe our evening prayer. When a year a-go we gathered, Joy was in his mild blue eye, But a gold - en cord is severed, And our hopes in ruin lie. 2. At our fire - side, sad and lonely, Often will the bosom swell at re- mem-brance of the sto-ry How our no-ble Willie fell; How he strove to bear our banner Thro' the thickest of the fight, And up- hold our country's hon-or, In the strength of of manhood's might. 3. True they tell us, wreaths of glo-ry Ev- er more will deck his brow, But this <pre>soothes the anguish on-ly Sweeping o'er our hearstrings now, Sleep to </pre> day, O early fall-en, In thy green and narrow bed, Dirges from the pine and cypress Mingle with the tears we shed. 184405 <hr /> CHORUS. Air. Sop We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one vacant chair; We shall lin-ger to caress him When we breathe our evening prayer. Alto. We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one vacant chair; We shall lin-ger to caress him When we breathe our evening prayer. Tenor. We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one vacant chair; We shall lin-ger to caress him When we breathe our evening prayer. Base. We shall meet, but we shall miss him, There will be one vacant chair; We shall lin-ger to caress him When we breathe our evening prayer. <hr /> NEW MUSIC; PUBLISHED BY ROOT & CADY, 95 CLARK STREET, CHICAGO PATRIOTIC SONGS QUARTETTES &C.

Vernon, 1894-1972 Description An account of the resource The Janotta Family Collection contains photographs relating to conductor/composer Alfredo Jannotta, his wife, activist and author Stella Skiff Jannotta, and their family. Several photographs belonged to their son, Navy Rear Admiral A. Vernon Jannotta. Alfredo Jannotta immigrated from Italy by way of London to Boston in 1865 where he taught voice at the New England Conservatory of Music. He married his first wife, Alice Prudy and they had a son, Edward, before Alfredo moved to Cincinnati in 1868. Alfredo spent 12 years in Cincinnati teaching vocal performance as well as conducting the Cincinnati Choral Society and organizing the first Cincinnati orchestra. He moved back to Boston in 1881 but moved to St. Paul, Minnesota, in 1882 and finally to Chicago in 1888 where he established himself as a vocal teacher. While teaching in Chicago, Jannotta taught vocal lessons to Stella Skiff whom he married in 1893. Skiff was the daughter of Iowa businessman Vernon William Skiff and his wife, Mary Frances Coffin. Her brother, Frank Vernon Skiff founded the Jewel Tea Company which later grew into a national grocery store chain including Jewel, Osco, Eisner, and White Hen. Skiff continued her singing career after marrying Jannotta and briefly taught lessons. Between 1894 and 1898, she gave birth to sons A. Vernon, Francis, and Joseph. Between 1917 and 1918, Stella adopted three foster daughters, Margaret, Marion, and Betty (Elizabeth). In the early 20th century she began taking an active interest in causes including the suffrage movement and socialism. Stella Jannotta joined the Chicago Political Equality League (predecessor to the Chicago League of Women Voters) in 1907. She wrote for the propaganda arm of the organization, including a 1916 article entitled "Public Opinion" which she revisted several times over the following decades. A. Vernon Jannotta, the oldest son on Alfredo and Stella, served in the United States Navy in both World War I and World War II. He rose through the ranks of the Navy and the Naval Reserves, eventually retiring as a Rear Admiral in 1954. Jannotta received several military honors including the Navy Cross, Silver Star, two Bronze Stars, and a Purple Heart.  Jannotta began working at the Jewel Tea Company in 1919 and held several positions at the company for the next 50 years. He also held several executive positions or held stakes in several companies including Lehman Brothers, Motor Institute of America, Tapp, Inc. and Consolidated Trading Corporation.
