Among the highlights of this volume are the following: an account of Trajetta's parents, notably the legacy of his father; a reconstruction of Trajetta's life in the major music centers of the new American republic: Boston, Charleston, New York City, and Philadelphia; the contents of recital programs published in period newspapers identifying Trajetta's contributions as a violinist and a composer; details surrounding Trajetta's efforts as a pedagogue, especially his participation in the founding of musical conservatories in Boston, New York City, and Philadelphia; a discussion of Trajetta's compositions and compositional style; illuminating contextual information concerning the musical life of early nineteenth-century American cities where Trajetta made his mark and established connections with other Italian immigrants such as Lorenzo da Ponte; a facsimile reproduction of the third edition (1873) of his theoretical treatise An Introduction to the Art and Science of Music; new editions of six representative compositions from Trajetta's pen; a catalogue of extant compositions.;
