Le guide musical

Le guide musical (The Music Guide) was a French language Belgian and French classical music periodical founded March 1, 1855, in Brussels by Peter Bernard Schott (1821–1873), of the Brussels music publishing house Schott frères (Schott Brothers).^[1]

Editors & history

Maurice Kufferath (1852–1919) was editor from 1887 till 1891; in 1889 the editorial office relocated to Paris and began publishing from both Paris and Brussels. In 1892, Junne Otto, director of Schott frères, sold the periodical to Kufferath, the editor. From 1894 to 1905, Hugues Imbert (1842–1905) became editor-in-chief, then Henri de Curzon (1861–1942). Kufferath preserved the publication's Franco-Belgium character. The publication ceased at the breakout of World War I.^[2]
