Sheet Music, Music History and Music Instruction

Note: Many of these books were "rescued" from a basement storage area. They were originally new, but long years of storage and shelf wear are obvious on those covers. All pages are intact and except for some obvious signs of age, they are all usable. These books are now out of print, and some are very rare.
