This book explores the work of three significant American women
composers of the twentieth century: Ruth Crawford, Marion Bauer and
Miriam Gideon. It offers a unique approach to a rich body of music
that deserves theoretical scrutiny and provides information on both
the lives and music of these fascinating women, skilfully
interweaving history and musical analysis in ways that both the
specialist and the more general reader will find compelling. In
this important study, Ellie Hisama has employed forms of analysis
by which she links musical characteristics with aspects of the
composers' identities. This is revealing both for questions of
music and gender and the continuing search for meaning in music.
The book thus draws attention to the value of the music of these
three composers and contributes to the body of analytical work
concerned with the explanation of musical language.
