George Whitefield Chadwick

His Symphonic Works
Investigates Chadwick's symphonic compositions based on their historical background. Detailed musical analysis provides an understanding of the stylistic and structural tendencies. An exhaustive review of the critical reception of Chadwick's symphonic oeuvre places the works in a cultural context.
In the nineteenth-century, American musical composition was dominated by European-born composers and conductors who emigrated to the United States. Chadwick helped the cause of American composition by making distinctively American works acceptable in the concert hall. A detailed analysis of the composer's six symphonic works imparts a sense of Chadwick's symphonic style. This analysis reveals the change from an emulation of European masters to a completely personal and American style. The critical response to Chadwick's work is exhaustively reviewed to provide insights into many aspects of the composer, his music, and his work as a conductor. Includes two appendixes containing a list of performances of his symphonic works, a complete roster of his compositions, bibliography and discography.
