No Customer Reviews
This book analyzes the place of popular music in American culture from 1866 to 1910, and the way in which it reflected American values. Tawa has examined over 1000 songs, the methods of their composition, publication and performance, and how they were received by the public. He contends that many of these songs, though light in character, measure up to the highest standards of musical craftsmanship and invention.
