"Little known in the English-speaking world, Ferruccio Busoni's Sketch of a New Aesthetic of Music (originally published in 1907) is a daringly progressive statement about the necessary freedom and future of music, its broad and prescient outlook all the more fascinating for its having arrived so early. Busoni was a composer, composition teacher and virtuoso concert pianist of early twentieth-century Europe, born Italian but working in Germany, and a highly respected figure in his time." — Precinct

This type choice is appropriate given the time frame of Busoni's essay:Dear Sir/Madamis based on a 1905 alphabet by Eric Gill.
