[Dickinson, Emily. (1830 - 1886)] Dickinson, Clarence. (1873 - 1969). Six Songs. Addressed to Mrs. Procter Smith. . Chicago: Samuel Merwin and Company. [1897]. First edition. Six Songs. The musical settings by Charles Dickinson. The poems by Emily Dickinson. Folio, title wrappers. 16 pp. Wrappers stained along spine and outer edge, lower wrapper corners chipped.
Published a year after "Poems: Third Series," these songs are the second published musical settings of Emily Dickinson's poems, poems which were, of course, later to be set by many of the 20th century's most important composers. The composer of the the present songs was a cousin of Emily and is considered one of the chief figures of 20th century American church music. This youthful publication was his first set of songs, written while he lived in Chicago and is dedicated to an early benefactor and patron. A rare piece of Dickinsoniana. OCLC records a total of five copies - Northwestern, Ohio State, Yale, Brown (lacks wrappers), and Harvard. The only copy in trade we can trace was that offered by the late Robert Lucas in his 1991 Catalogue 35 "Emily Dickinson and her Amherst," and judging by his description, this is the same copy. BAL 4663.
