Nineteenth-Century Choral Music is an in-depth examination of the
rich repertoire of choral music and the cultural phenomenon of
choral music making throughout the period. The book is divided into
three main sections. The first details the attraction to choral
singing and the ways it was linked to different parts of society,
and to the role of choral voices in the two principal large-scale
genres of the period: the symphony and opera. A second section
highlights ten choral-orchestral masterworks that are a central
part of the repertoire. The final section presents overview and
focus chapters covering composers, repertoire (both small and
larger works), and performance life in an historical context from
over a dozen regions of the world: Britain and Ireland, the Czech
Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Latin America, the
Philippines, Poland, Russia, Scandinavia and Finland, Spain, and
the United States. This diverse collection of essays brings
together the work of 25 authors, many of whom have devoted much of
their scholarly lives to the composers and music discussed, giving
the reader a lively and unique perspective on this significant part
of nineteenth-century musical life.
