About this product

Product Information

At the beginning of the twentieth century 'music' meant the 'art' tradition of Western Europe and North America; by the end of the century that was just one tradition among many. Written by a group of experts in the field, this book surveys what happened to the Western 'art' tradition alongside the development of jazz, popular music, and world music, linking the history of music with that of its social contexts.

Reviews
'Its pluralist narrative finds room for pop, jazz and easy listening alongside classical mainstreams and avant-garde orthodoxies. The non-interventionist stance makes for lively debate between contributors, reflecting the revisionist brand of musicology where the importance of any musical culture must be constantly contested.' The Independent, 'It can be warmly recommended as a worthwhile institutional purchase and as an encouragingly good read.' Music teacher, "Among the invaluable appendixes are "Personalia" (ABBA to Zwilich) and a 101-year chronology listing first performances/recordings along with other musical, cultural, and sociopolitical events. Highly recommended." CHOICE May 2005, "There is no doubt that this hefty single-volume history of music in the twentieth century is a brave and ambitious undertaking ... fascinating ... authoritative ... compelling critical reappraisal ... passionate ... thought-provoking and challenging in their reassessment of the concept of the mainstream in twentieth-century music histories, and in their rethinking of how to tell selected aspects of those histories." Twentieth-Century Music

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
