This two-volume survey of German music, from 1854, offers lively descriptions of the musical life of German cities, and extended essays on Spohr, Beethoven, Schubert and Mendelssohn, but Chorley is by no means an uncritical observer, noting with concern the rise of nationalism in Germany after 1848.
