American Music: A Panorama, Concise Edition

Features

• The new reorganization focuses the reader's attention on the styles and genres most representative of the character of American music. For example, in chapter 14, Tin Pan Alley (an important topic scattered throughout the chapter in the previous edition), now appears in a single, compact discussion placed logically at the end of the chapter to underscore its importance. Also, the text's topical organization allows instructors great flexibility in designing their courses without sacrificing the historical context of each musical style and genre.
• A 4-CD set has nearly 100 tracks, more selections than any other book. These musical selections illustrates the roots, influences, and moments that define American music.
• Coverage of the most recent musical traditions to join the American panorama including a new section on hip hop speak to students about their musical heritage and listening preferences.
• Frequent cross-referencing of the recordings in the text shows the roots of one style in another and the influence one style has had on another. Approximately 100 photographs with extensive captions capture the music's historical context.
• Projects appearing at the end of each chapter supply assignments and trigger class discussion. Extensive references and additional listening suggestions encourage students to explore on their own.

Product Description
This briefer, more accessible edition of our best-selling survey text describes American music as a panorama of distinct yet parallel streams--hip-hop and Latin; folk and country; gospel and classical; jazz, blues, and rock-that reflect the uniquely diverse character of the United States. Comparing and contrasting musical styles across regions and time, Candelaria and Kingman deliver a vision of American music both exuberant and inventive, a music that arises out of the history and musical traditions of the many immigrants to America's shores.
