Making Music Modern
This work sets the growth of American musical composition against parallel developments in American culture, provides a guide for understanding the music, and explores how the notion of the concert tradition, as inherited from Western Europe, was challenged and revitalized through contact with American popular song, jazz, and non-Western musics.
