Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This series presents the music of the Western world to the nonspecialist in six original, strikingly illustrated volumes. In each one, an outstanding musicologist surveys the music of a specific period, discusses its major composers, and examines the forces that influenced and helped shape their oeuvre.

Synopsis:

Divided into three chronological sections which cover the entire century, this study explores national movements, as represented by Charles Ives and Ralph Vaughan Williams, philosophical movements as various as the Schoenberg-Webern alliance, New Romanticism and the boom in electronic music.

Description:

Includes bibliographical references (p. 491-537) and index.
