520 1 |a "Prior to the stock market crash of 1929, American music still possessed a distinct tendency towards elitism, as songwriters and composers sought to avoid the mass appeal that critics scorned. During the Depression, however, radio came to dominate the other musical media of the time, and a new era of truly popular music was born. Under the guidance of the great Duke Ellington and a number of other talented and charismatic performers, swing music unified the public consciousness like no other musical form before or since. At the same time, the enduring legacies of Woody Guthrie in folk, Aaron Copland in classical, and George and Ira Gershwin on Broadway stand as a testament to the great diversity of tastes and interests that subsisted throughout the Great Depression, and play a part still in our lives today. The lives of these and many other great musicians come alive in this study of the works, artists, and circumstances that contributed to making and performing the music that helped America through one of its most difficult times."--BOOK JACKET.
