Book Synopsis The Sound of a Superpower by : Emily Abrams Ansari
Book excerpt: After two decades of remarkable success, the quest to create a uniquely American classical music faltered in the 1950s. Many blamed the Cold War for its demise, but the conflict also brought Americanist composers unprecedented opportunities. This book examines this complex picture and its long-term effects.
