| | Masters of Contemporary Music (1894): Felix Draeseke |
 | | The late nineteenth century series "Masters of Contemporary Music: A Series of Biographical and Critical Sketches" included the volumes "Masters of English Music" by C. Willeby, "Masters of French Music" by A. Hervey, and "Masters of German Music" by, the Londoner, J.A. Fuller-Maitland. |
 | | The volume on German composers was completed in 1894, and was published later that year by Osgood, McIlvaine and Co. in London, and Charles Scribner's in New York. |
 | | A certain diffusion of interests, too, is partly responsible for the comparatively small number of his compositions, since he has contributed largely and with good results to the literature of music, and has gone somewhat deeply into the modern developments of pianoforte technique. |
