This is the first comprehensive study of the artist's life and his distinguished career. The work is so full of detail and solid history that it stands as a model biography of an important musical figure. This book provides the social context in which a major composer grew, how he learned his craft and built his career, the evolving musical tastes of American audiences, and his relationship to musical giants like Arturo Toscanini and Serge Koussevitsky.
