| Biographical note | "Now professor of music at the University of Texas, Homer Ulrich possesses an exceptional background. From 1891 to 1935 one or more members of his family played in the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Mr. Ulrich studied with eminent instrumentalists, attended the Chicago Musical College and the graduate school of the University of Chicago, and received his orchestral training in the Civic Orchestra of Chicago. For six years he played with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra under Stock; he then became head of the music department of Monticello College. He has been with the University of Texas since 1939, teaching various courses in music literature. He has maintained his live interest in symphonic music by holding membership in the orchestras of San Antonio and Austin simultaneously. Other books by Mr. Ulrich are 'Chamber Music: The Growth and Practice of an Intimate Art' and 'The Education of a Concert-Goer'."--Dust jacket. |
