During the Great War, composers and performers created music that
expressed common sentiments like patriotism, grief, and anxiety.
Yet music also revealed the complexities of the partnership between
France, Great Britain, Canada, and the United States. At times,
music reaffirmed a commitment to the shared wartime mission. At
other times, it reflected conflicting views about the war from one
nation to another or within a single nation.Over Here, Over There
examines how composition, performance, publication, recording,
censorship, and policy shaped the Atlantic allies' musical response
to the war. The first section of the collection offers studies of
individuals. The second concentrates on communities, whether local,
transnational, or on the spectrum in-between. Essay topics range
from the sinking of the Lusitania through transformations of the
entertainment industry to the influenza pandemic.Contributors:
Christina Bashford, William Brooks, Deniz Ertan, Barbara L. Kelly,

Meinhart, Brian C. Thompson, and Patrick Warfield
