This book studies George Crumb's Winds of Destiny (2004) and Black
Angels (1970) as artefacts of collective memory and cultural
trauma. It situates these two pieces in Crumb's output and unpacks
the complex methodologies needed to understand these pieces as
contributions and challenges to traditional narratives of the Civil
War and the Vietnam War. This book shows how this association began
and how it endures through connections to iconic Vietnam War media,
including films and books. Together these analyses show the legacy
of trauma in American collective memory, which is in a continuous
crisis. \This book will be of interest to students of contemporary
American music, American studies, and memory studies. It benefits
readers by newly situating Crumb's music within these three fields
of study.
