Ludwig Spohr, one of the greatest of violin players and among the foremost exponents of the Romantic school of opera, wrote two oratorios, both of which to English speaking people are known as " The Last Judgment." Frequent confusion has arisen from the error of the translator. An interval of fourteen years separate them, but they are united by one point of similarity, and that is the fact that before engaging in the composition of each one Spohr felt called upon to prepare himself for his labors by a self-inflicted course in counterpoint, a knowledge of which he deemed necessary to the writer of sacred music. ; No date but likely around 1880's. ; 7" x 10" ; 106 pages
