J.A. Parks Music Company -- BOOKS

© 2003 - 2011 KILGORE MEMORIAL LIBRARY

This page lists J.A. Parks Music Company book titles. The code letter / number combinations just before the titles also appear in the “songs” listings.

Most of the list is based on Kilgore Memorial Library’s holdings, the music collections of York churches and museums, and items borrowed from other libraries.  J.A. Parks materials at the York County Historical Association are brief-listed here.   Some listings are derived from photocopies of covers and contents pages of books supplied by the Polley Music Library at Lincoln City Libraries, other collections, or catalog entries in the OCLC  WorldCat   database.   A few titles are only known from the listings appearing on the back pages and back covers of the music books we’ve seen, or other secondary sources. Each “clickable” book title opens a table of contents.

The earliest piece in Kilgore Memorial Library’s J.A. Parks Music Books collection bears 1896 publication and copyright dates.   As noted on the page listing J.A. Parks songs published by other publishers, Lorenz & Co. “Christmas Cantatas” from the mid-1890s have music by J.A. Parks.   Only a few of the J.A. Parks Music Company books we’ve seen have a publication date on the title page.   The publication dates for the rest of the books can be inferred from the most recent copyright date on the pieces included, or Catalog of Copyright Entries recoverable through google/books searches. Copyright dates formatted as “clickable links” in this books list connect to copies from the Catalog of Copyrights or clips in “google/books”. Publication Chronology lists books and notes about the Octavo number sequence year by year.

The greatest detail about the individual songs is shown in the J.A. Parks (Songs) listings.   The opening J.A. Parks (Songs) page has links to several sections comprising an alphabetical listing of song titles sorted by first key word and a numeric listing of J. A. Parks Music Company “octavo” sheet music.

Some groupings of successive Octavo music numbers correspond with the contents of books in this listing.   For example, the contents of Singable Songs for Young People (1917) appear as music “octavos” numbered 839 - 858.   Other books were compiled from music published over a span of several years. Identical arrangements of some songs appear in two or more books.  

(December, 2006): Links to OCLC’s WorldCat catalog records are provided for the books that are included in that database. WorldCat records include the names of libraries that hold the item.   We’ve also begun to revise and extend the contents listings for each of the books, adding attributions and corresponding music “octavo” numbers to the contents.

We’d appreciate hearing from anyone having information about other J.A. Parks music books not included in this list, or who has copies of the ones we have not seen.   Our e-mail address is co51537@windstream.net , our telephone number is (402) 363-2620.
