First Enulish Music PRINTING,

In England the first known attempt
It music printing was in 1495 by Wyn.
Ken de Worde, at Westminster. A book
n the British museum proves that
jorid music was printed in England in
1880. The Typography is identical
With that of Petrucci.
There was little or no improvement
in the principle or setting UP movable
music type for some time. Nothing
could be more excellent than the book
printed by Worde alluded to above, but
that was the result OF double printing
and both ancient and modern printers
who have tried the method have found
It's disadvantages so great that they
nave abandoned the process.
