The Ethiopian Glee Book: Containing The Songs Sung By The Christy Minstrels: With Many Other Popular Negro Melodies: In Four Parts: Arranged For Quart
"The Ethiopian Glee Book, No. 3" is a collection of songs popularized by the Christy Minstrels, a prominent minstrel troupe of the mid-19th century. Compiled and arranged by Elias Howe, this songbook features a selection of "Ethiopian melodies" and other popular tunes of the era, formatted for quartet performance. It provides a glimpse into the musical landscape and performance practices of the time, reflecting both the popularity and the problematic racial dynamics inherent in minstrelsy. This historical songbook is a valuable resource for understanding the evolution of American popular music and its complex cultural context.
