D'ALEMBERT (Jean le Rond): - Elémens de Musique Théorique et Pratique, suivant les Principes de M. Rameau, éclairis, développées et simplifiés. Nouvelle Édition, Revue, corrigée & considérablement augmentée.

A Lyon, Chez Jean-Marie Bruyset..., 1762 8vo, pp. [iv], xxxvi, 236 [237 - 239 Approbation and Privilege, 240 blank], 10 folding engraved plates at end of text, 19th century quarter calf, marbled boards, gilt spine. A very good copy. This is in fact the third edition, the first having been published in 1752, followed by a "nouvell edition" in 1766. Part of the importance of d'Alembert's work lies in its secularization of music theory. New Grove terms this "an outstanding work of elucidation."
