CATEL (Charles-Simon): - A Treatise on Harmony, Written and Composed for the Use of the Pupils at the Royal Conservatoire of Music, in Paris; by Catel, Professor of Harmony in that Establishment. From the English Copy, with additional Notes and Explanations, By Lowell Mason.

Boston [Massachusetts]: Published by James Loring..., 1832. 8vo, pp. 156, original embossed cloth, paper label defective); joints snagged, spine slightly faded and snagged. Catel (1773 - 1830) published this in 1802, as a short monograph, Traité d'harmonie, and it was the standard handbook on harmony throughout France, as well as elsewhere on the continent, for many decades. The first English translation seems to have been the one in 1820, and this would also appear to be the first American edition.
