Excerpt from Panseron's A B C of Music: A Primer of Vocalization Containing the Elements of Music and Solfeggi Auguste Mathieu Panseron was born in Paris, April 26, 1796. He entered the Conservatoire at an early age, winning the Grandprix de Rome (1813 ). While in Italy, beside pursuing his theoretical work, he made an exhaustive study of the art of singing and the style of the old Italian masters. After travelling in Austria and Germany he returned to Paris and became a teacher. In 1826 he was made professor of Solfege at the Conservatoire, in 1831 professor of Vocalization, and in 1836 professor of Singing. This long experience made his text-books and his works on singing especially valuable. Able, learned and painstaking as a musician, he was kind and amiable as a man. Pan-scron died in Paris, July 29, 1859. The A B C of Music was first published in this country in 1846, edited by Signor Felice Dorigo, a professor of Italian bel canto, and at that time a resident of Philadelphia. In this form the work has had a wide circulation. While elementary in character, it presupposed, however, some knowledge of music, and could hardly be followed without the aid of a teacher, in fact it was intended primarily for the use of teachers. In the preparation of this revised edition, the editor has sought to make the book comprehensible to beginners, even to those who are obliged to study without the help of a teacher. This in no way lessens the value of the work to the teacher. The revised and amplified work goes into a more detailed explanation of the various problems as they occur, thereby making many points clearer to the student, and the book more helpful to the teacher.
