Description:
A concise anthology including a wide range of nineteenth-century
music.


Anthology for Music in the Nineteenth Century, part of
the Western Music in Context series, is the ideal companion to
Music in the Nineteenth Century. Twenty-three carefully chosen
works?including movements from a Beethoven quartet, excerpts
from operas by Verdi and Bizet, piano music by Gottschalk, and a
symphonic movement by Tchaikovsky?offer representative
examples of genres and composers of the period. Commentaries
following each score present a careful analysis of the music, and
online links to purchase and download recordings make listening
easier than ever.
