„It would be impossible to fully map the instrumentarium of the
classical and romantic eras, so in my book I do not attempt to provide a
comprehensive encyclopedia of instruments from the eighteenth and
nineteenth centuries. Rather, I have endeavored to introduce some of the
marvelous musical instruments from the period that have since
disappeared into the mists of obscurity. Organized along organological
lines, this volume is richly illustrated with drawings from patent
applications, period photographs, and modern studio images that showcase
these rare instruments. I have selected those that I deem particularly
noteworthy, either for the aesthetics of their appearance or for the
eccentricity of their mechanisms. Lovers of classical music will find
the introduction of such inventions, many of which today are scarcely
known even to experts, exciting and it is rewarding to recall these
undeservedly forgotten relatives of the well-known symphonic
instruments. Many of the inventors worked on their instruments over the
course of decades, but they now sit neglected in major collections
around the world. Uncovering these rarities and retelling their colorful
histories thus help us to honor and save the life’s work of their
inventors for the benefit of future generations of music lovers.”
