A couple of years ago I was lucky to find a complete original of this quite rare book of secular sheet music for reed organ, first published in 1901. It shows how integrated the harmonium/reed organ was in the daily life of the Victorians/Edwardians. Hymns and religious songs on Sundays, secular favourites at any (other) time. I processed Newell’s "Secular Melodist" and now offer this new edition, produced to modern standards but retaining the original format.
The original title page reads:
