Reviews

Wollenberg's research on the extensive concert activity in the colleges is particularly valuable, as well as that going on in the downtown independent of the university. Welcome, too, is an openness here to British genres and composers that are normally dismissed from scholarly considerations. English Historical Review A lucidly written survey of the leading aspects of musical life in the city over more than two centuries ... it leads the reader through the old practices of musical life in sympathetic and enlightening fashion. English Historical Review
