"Masterworks of 20th-Century Music" introduces over 100 of the
greatest compositions by world composers that have entered the
standard orchestral repertory. The author surveyed dozens of major
American orchestras to find which pieces are commonly performed,
and has focused on these works that an average audience member is
most likely to hear. Among the popular pieces profiled are Aaron
Copland's "Appalachian Spring"; Gustav Holst's "The Planets;" Igor
Stravinsky's "Le sacre du printemps;" Samuel Barber's "Knoxville:
Summer of 1915;" George Gershwin's "An" "American in Paris";
Charles Ives's "Three Places in New England"; and many more. With
each entry is given a wealth of information about: the composer,
when and where the piece was first performed, in what "style" it
was composed, and a basic analysis of the music. This book serves
the general reader interested in 20th-century music, plus students,
teachers, and scholars.
