The Companion to Twentieth-century Music by Norman Lebrecht
A guide to 20th-century music, which includes information on composers, conflicting ideologies and personalities, and clearly explains compositional techniques. It assesses the merits of jazz and rock, and their role in musical evolution. It also attacks the elitism that encouraged some composers to ignore audiences, and the commercialism that prompted others to write for the lowest common denominator.| SKU | Unavailable |
