The Dawning of American Keyboard MusicBloomsbury Academic, 19.10.1988 - 438 Seiten Clark provides an extensive survey of the keyboard culture of the young American nation. Written in straightforward, accessible style, the volume covers the period 1787-1830. Clark's unusual organization of the music by genre . . . reveals the wide expanse of the early musical output. . . . This volume belongs in every academic library and on the shelves of all pianists interested in US national musical heritage. Clark's `overriding wish is that some of this music will be played and heard again.' This reviewer heartily concurs and applauds this book as a solid cornerstone upon which his wish may be built.
