| Summary | "Famous Composers and their Works, Vol. 3" edited by John Knowles Paine, Theodore Thomas, and Karl Klauser is a collection of biographical sketches focusing on notable composers and their music, written in the late 19th century. This volume delves into the lives and contributions of significant composers, providing insights into their artistic journeys and notable compositions. The book likely aims to celebrate the composers' legacies while educating readers about their works. The opening of the volume introduces Joseph Joachim Raff, detailing his early life, education, and struggles before he ultimately finds success in music. It recounts how Raff, despite a lack of formal training and financial challenges, pursued his passion for composition, gaining recognition through the support of established composers like Mendelssohn and Liszt. The narrative highlights key moments in Raff’s career, such as his significant works and collaborations, and sets the stage for a deeper exploration of his musical contributions throughout the rest of the book.
