10 One of the few frustrations at this stage of the book is that, with so much description of more or less unknown music, more musical examples are not provided (an appendix lists Jones's sources and the available modern editions, but one still encounters detailed descriptions of symphonies by Krommer, say, which are accessible only in the archive of the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde).
