释义 |
According to his Library of Congress name authority record[2] Herfurth, C. Paul (Clarence Paul) died in 1988, and the record adds the information from the Social Security Death Index "(C.P. Herfurth; b. Oct. 7, 1893, d. Aug. 16, 1988)". Tune a Day booksThe earliest, dated, Tune a Day book listed in the Library of Congress catalog is simply entitled Tune a Day and was published in Boston by the Boston Music company in 1937. Others quickly followed: Tune a Day for Cornet (Trumpet)Instruction (1941), titles for clarinet, string bass, trombone(baritone) and saxophone in 1942, 43, 44 and 45 respectively. The series soon expanded to include fifteen different versions, with books in each version catering for various levels. The books remained unchanged for many years until a recent republication with updated photographs; the much-loved original editions had a deceptively simple format, with a carefully structured musical development , featuring photographs of teenagers from the nineteen forties playing the instruments. It was only in 2006 that the Boston Music Company updated the series to create the New Tune a Day series, with color photographs and modernised typography. Despite the modernisation, the old series remains popular, and the company has recently reissued the old series in parallel with the new. The series did not include any books for piano, perhaps because the beginners books of John W. Schaum filled this niche: both series contained simple well known hymn and folk tunes.
