Description A largely complete sequence of programmes from the 25th season of the Monday Popular Concerts, given at St. James's Hall, London, 1882–83, under the direction of S. Arthur Chappell, arranged chronologically as a bound volume and also including a programme for the Saturday Popular Concert given on 27 January 1883.

All programmes provide words and historical and analytical notes with musical examples. Many of the programmes also identify the number of times a work has previously been performed at the series.
