the vintage feast and the jovial holiday. It is little wonder that he should speak in the language of his people, or recall the phrases that had been familiar from his childhood. Yet it is no patois that he uses, but the speech of a whole nation; a living force that spreads wide and reaches to distant boundaries. Nor is he great because he has chosen this or that topic, this or that form of utterance; it is because he is great that there was no choice in the matter. He could not have written of set habit in the German idiom; he was Slav by race and Slav by temper, and his music is too genuine to present itself in foreign guise. It is from this point of view that we should understand him; not by loosely classifying him among a people with whom he had little in common, but by regarding him as the true embodiment of his own national spirit. The Greek proverb condemns a man of two tongues: through the world of art the condemnation is still in force, and at least some measure of it should fall on the ingenious critics who call patriotism parochial, and justify their epithet by obliterating frontiers. APPENDICES. APPENDIX A. _Croatian Musicians_, 1835-1848. (1) _Composers_:—Lisinski. Čačković. Livadić. Štoos. Wiesner. Mašek. Rusan. Baron Prandau. Pintavić. F. von Suppé. Jaić. (2) _Singers_:— Countess Rubido. Stazić. Štriga. Ledenig. (3) _Virtuosi, &c._:— Ivan Padovec. L. A. Zellner. N.B.—The following rules of pronunciation should be observed. r (as a semi-vowel) carries a very short vowel sound before the consonant. Brlog = Berlog made as near a monosyllable as possible. c = tz. Zajc is pronounced Zaitz. č = ch soft (like ch in Church). ć = ty in which the y is a consonant (as it is for instance in the word “you”). The sound is half-way between the “te” in “righteous” and the “tch” in “wretched.” š = sch or sh. Pušovec (see Appendix C) is pronounced Pushovetz. ž = the French j, as in jour. lj and nj are like the gli and gn in figlio, campagna. The other letters are, roughly speaking, pronounced as in German, except z, which = s in sehr; and s, which = ss in Strasse. APPENDIX B. _Croatian Musicians_, 1848-1880. (1) _Composers_:— Rihar.‡ G.
