THE LEADER is the title OF Messrs. II. II,
Palmer and L. o. Emerson's new book Of
church music, just published by Oliver
Ditson Il Co., Boston. Mr.. Emerson, Oh
this occasion, politely retires In the back
ground, leaving the hOnors mainly in the
hands of his western contemporary, but his
assistance in the work Is hearty and pow
erful, since he contributes upward Of a
hundred pieces of music. Mr.. Palmer's
own compositions arc now widely known,
both East and West, and those belonging
to the Singing School course in the LEAD
Err will help, not little, to assist pupils
gracefully and pleasantly over the dry
ground Of practice which belongs to the
first period Of musical study. About fifty
sacred tunes and anthems also carry his
name as composer or arranger. The united
laburs of the two gentlemen named are
enough, surely, to make any book popular.
There are, besides, a large number of new
tunes by other favorite American compos-
ers. For sale by Cheney & Capp.
