A Compendium of Thorough Bass for Self-Instruction exemplified on his Patent-Chord-Denoter - Kornatzki, F. W. von; Liebe, Ludwig (London Weekes, 1881)
Curious, late treatise on basso continuo containing a playful card system (for the amateur?) to learn everything about harmony, keys, chords, and basso continuo in a practical way
The Chord Denoter, a device developed by Kornatzki, was a painted piece of glass fixed on a little stand divided in two compartments on which the cards had to be put in order to learn continuo
