The purpose of a book of this kind is an introduction to suggest a few of the many aspects which music may have even to the mind of a child. The chapters are used as the basis of simple talks with children, music as an art, full of beauty and of dignity; full of pure thought and abounding in joy
Thomas Tapper (1864 - 1958)
Our failure to present music to the young in a manner that interests and holds them is due not so much to the fact that music is too difficult for children, but because the children themselves are too difficult for us. In our ignorance we often withhold the rightful inheritance. We must not forget that the slower adult mind often meets a class of difficulties which are not recognized by the unprejudiced child. It is not infrequent that with the old fears in us we persist in recreating difficulties." (From the Preface)
