Recenzii
A fascinating journey into the historical and racial context surrounding an extraordinary composer and musical work that not only provides a window into the intent behind the composition but also insight into its musical complexities and the resulting reflection of who we were... and who we are, as a nation. I found it an informative and engaging read while conveying a sense of the power and impact that a single composer or a single work of music can have on our society.
Can you talk about the New World Symphony without talking about race, cultural appropriation, and the challenges of defining 'American' classical music? Douglas Shadle's book, equally valuable for newcomers and for those who think they already know all about Dvorak's most popular work, views the genesis and reception of the piece through a new, clear lens that brings into focus some of the challenging questions that it continues to raise and that remain, in this field, too little discussed.
