This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

He was born in Belmont, Massachussets, the fifth child and third son of Charles Fairchild and his wife Elizabeth (Nelson) Fairchild.
He was graduated from Harvard University, with the degree of A. B. , in 1899.
During his years at Harvard he studied music under John Knowles Paine and Walter Spalding and upon graduation went to Florence, where he became a piano pupil of Buonamici.
While studying with this teacher he published the first volume of his song-cycle, Stornelli Toscani.
In 1901, acceding to the wishes of his father, he embarked upon a business and diplomatic career. For a time he was in an office on Wall Street, then he went into the diplomatic service and was briefly in Constantinople and later at Teheran, Persia. Residence in these places enabled him to study the music of Persia and the Near East.
He returned to the United States in December 1902 and thereafter devoted himself to music.
He settled in Paris and for five years studied composition with Charles-Marie Widor. For the rest of his life, Paris was his chief residence, although he divided his time, somewhat unevenly, between the United States and France.
During the First World War he acted as the representative of the American Friends of Musicians in France. He was created a chevalier of the Legion of Honor of France in September 1919.
Fairchild's music was accorded performances both in America and in France from the early years of his residence in Paris. His Poeme for Orchestra, East and West, was presented in New York in 1908, and in Paris, by the De Lery Orchestra, during the following year.
In 1909 the Willaume Quartet gave a program in Paris which included his Quintet, a Rhapsody for piano, and a Trio.
Five years after his death, on February 17, 1938, a group of his friends and admirers organized a memorial concert of his works in New York's Town Hall (New York Times, Feb. 18, 1938).
