Central to the repertoire of Western art music since the 1700s, the
symphony has come to be regarded as one of the ultimate
compositional challenges. In his series The Symphonic Repertoire,
the late A. Peter Brown explored the symphony in Europe from its
origins into the 20th century. In Volume V, Brown's former students
and colleagues continue his vision by turning to the symphony in
the Western Hemisphere. It examines the work of numerous
symphonists active from the early 1800s to the present day and the
unique challenges they faced in contributing to the European
symphonic tradition. The research adds to an unmatched compendium
of knowledge for the student, teacher, performer, and sophisticated
amateur. This much-anticipated fifth volume of The Symphonic
Repertoire: The Symphony in the Americas offers a user-friendly,
comprehensive history of the symphony genre in the United States
and Latin America.
