What reading level is The Spirit of French Music book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Saint-Sa6ns has made a brief reply, and in particular has asked whether they regarded the fourth act of the Huguenots as a small thing. The point was quite inadequate as a general defence of Meyerbeer's work, but it was not ill-chosen. The fourth act of the Huguenots is Meyerbeer's most successful effort ; he has perhaps written other pages as strong, but he has never written an equally long sequence of strong pages. I say strong, not fine, pages ; there is a distinc- tion. M. Saint-Safins has ...by no means proved by this reference as much as he would have wished to prove ; he will not have changed in the least the opinion of those who, knowing Meyerbeer's musical work by hearing and reading it, judge it as a whole with severity.
But he has done well in indicating a certain limit, a certain restraint which should be observed in this severity if one wishes that it should remain strictly fair and rightly proportioned to the interests of taste.
I will justify to the best of my ability the estimate which I propose to offer of the value of Meyerbeer's Ii8 THE SPIRIT OF FRENCH MUSIC work and of his share in the destinies of musical art.
