Summary "For Every Music Lover" by Aubertine Woodward Moore is a collection of practical essays on music written in the early 20th century. The work aims to make music accessible to all, challenging the notion that it should be confined to an elite group. Moore explores various aspects of music, including its origin, function, and education, encouraging readers to engage deeply with the art form. The opening portion introduces the book with a preface discussing the importance of music in human life. Moore emphasizes that music should not be seen as exclusive to a privileged class but as an essential part of everyone's experience. She argues that music has a divine origin, intertwined with humanity’s evolution and inner emotions. The text highlights music's universal appeal and its capacity to uplift spirits, encourage self-expression, and foster a sense of community, laying the groundwork for a deeper exploration of music's role in culture and education in the subsequent chapters.
