Henry Fothergill Chorley was music critic of The Athenaeum for over thirty years. This threevolume book, published in 1841, originated in a journal written by Chorley while travelling in Europe. His aim was to 'illustrate the present state of theatrical, orchestral, and chamber music abroad', focusing on aspects that would be least familiar to an English readership. There are detailed accounts of Paris and Berlin, with prominence given to opera, theatre, art galleries and monuments. Chorley also describes visits to Brunswick, Leipzig, Dresden and Nuremburg, and performances by artists including Mendelssohn and Liszt. He intersperses anecdotes about transport, lodgings, landscapes and local customs. Chorley's incisive and entertaining eyewitness accounts will fascinate musiclovers and theatre historians, as well as others interested in the performing arts or travel writing in the nineteenthcentury. Volume 1 describes his visits to Paris and Brunswick, focusing on opera.
