William Schuman
"Here is the remarkable story of a New Yorker who heard his first orchestral concert at the age of 20, ten years later received the first award given by the New York Music Critics' Circle for a symphony, and five years after that was appointed president of one of the largest music conservatories in the world. It is the story of a man who suddenly found that what he wanted more than anything else was to compose music that would endure and who crammed into a few short years as much study as many composers require a third of a lifetime for. But William Schuman is not only one of the most distinguished composers this country has produced. He is an eminent educator, a first-rate administrator, and a powerful, progressive force in the creative and educational aspects of musical life in America. How Schuman rose from an unknown youth who supplied material for night-club acts to his present high position is told in these pages. The book also contains a sound and penetrating study of Schuman's music that examines every aspect of his style and analyzes in detail several of his most representative compositions."--Jacket
