The Music plates in Rees's Cyclopaedia

The index to plates in Vol 39 of the work notes that plates XXXIV — XLIV were intended to include selections from the works of Haydn and Mozart, and also various National Airs. Since the were readily accessible elsewhere they were omitted to save expense. Plate XLV was also omitted.

Wilson Lowry engraved a number of the general plates in Miscellany and with John Farey Jr, the draughtsman, those on the Hawkins's Claviole and the set on the Organ. .The examples of music notation in the Music section must be presumed to have been originally written out by Burney, and were engraved by a Jno [John] Lee. All the plates of musical instruments were also engraved by Lee. A number were drawn by a T. Webster. One was drawn by Edward Francesco Burney, Charles Burney's nephew, and another by an artist named Strange.
