About this product

Product Information

The Cambridge History of Twentieth-Century Music, first published in 2004, is an appraisal of the development of music in the twentieth century from the vantage-point of the twenty-first. This wide-ranging book traces the progressive fragmentation of the European 'art' tradition, and its relocation as one tradition among many at the century's end.

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
