The Musical Medley (Daniel Peck)

General Information

Title: The Musical Medley

Editor – Compiler: Daniel Peck

Publication date and place: 1808 by H. Mann in Dedham, Massachusetts, 104 pp.

Description: Some copies of "the work ha[ve] two indexes, one on p. [iv] covering only through p. 72, and another on p. [104], covering the entire volume. The preface claims that the music, except for one piece, is 'entirely original,' a statement [for the most part] pertaining to the first 72 pages but not the rest. These facts suggest either: 1) that the work first appeared as a 72-page book, and that the copy described here is not the first issue; or 2) that is was planned as a 72-page book, but after printing had begun, the final 32 pages were added" (Richard Crawford in American Sacred Music Imprints, 1990). At the time Crawford was writing, only the 104-page edition had been located. Recently, a music researcher found the previously unlocated 72-page edition in the Philadelphia Free Library.
