The music teacher and composer John Pyke Hullah (1812-84) is best
remembered for his 'singing school for schoolmasters'. Through his
dedicated efforts music was embedded into the school curriculum,
and his inspiration influenced the rapid growth of amateur choral
societies in Britain. Professor of vocal music at King's College,
London, from 1844 to 1874, Hullah was elected to the committee of
management of the Royal Academy of Music in 1869 and in 1872 became
the first government inspector of music in teacher training
colleges. The work reissued here is the second edition, published
in 1876, of lectures given at the Royal Institution in 1865 on the
topic of Italian, French, German and English music from the
Renaissance to Handel. It expands on part of his overarching 1861
course of lectures, The History of Modern Music, which is also
reissued in this series.
