Barrymore Laurence Scherer, a distinguished American author, leads the reader through an enthralling history, illustrating the importance of not only renowned names, such as Gershwin, Copland, Bernstein, Joplin and Sousa, but also those formally in the shadows, such as William Henry Fry and Alan Hovhaness. And, of course, we even step into Broadway for that most American step-child of opera: the musical. This development, tracked largely by key composers, is set against America's tempestuous history, putting neatly into context the achievements of the time. And with the words come 2 CDs of carefully chosen music to provide a uniquely rounded representation of this field. Furthermore, the purchaser of the book is given access to a dedicated website which offers even more music to listen to, as well as other bonus material.

Excerpt from Stories of the Four Great Composers, for Young People: Mendelssohn, Mozart, Beethoven and Haydn And so it came about that when Felix was three and Fanny seven years of age the mother gave them each a short music lesson daily; at first lasting but five minutes, and afterwards lengthened to longer periods according as they were able to keep their attention at the task They were living in Berlin at this time, and there were two other children in the home - Rebecca and Paul - a lovely group of child blossoms twined together with the bond of love - a bond that never weakened even after they were grown to manhood and womanhood. The children could not avoid growing m grace and beauty with the advantages of refinement and culture all about them. They were accustomed to meet people of distinction and fame who enjoyed the charms of their home at many social and private gatherings. Persons of distinction, too, early had the care of the children's education. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Stories of Great Musicians That the purpose1 of the public schools is the training of children for a higher citizenship, a more extensive helpfulness in affairs pertaining to the com mon good, no one questions; but we need expect no manifestation of a greater integrity, unless lofty ideals are kept constantly before them. Neither painter nor sculptor can produce a greater expres sion of beauty than that which has been built up in his own consciousness no individual can produce a greater expression of manhood or womanhood than that which he holds in his own mind. It is impor tant, therefore, that a high standard be set for the children in our schools to-day. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
