Summary: 5 Stars

Written by music director and faculty member of the University of Southern California's Thornton School of Music Nick Strimple, Choral Music in the Nineteenth Century is a scholarly and exhaustively thorough discussion of its subject, covering both sacred and secular music for vocal ensembles. Chapters discuss nineteenth-century choral music in Austria and Germany, France, Switzerland, The British Isles, Czech lands, Slovakia, Hungary, Poland, Russia, Scandinavia, the Baltics, the Americas, and more. Written music samples, letters, drawings, and black-and-white photographs, and quick reference lists round out this seminal work, indispensable to choral artists and scholars seeking an in-depth historical grounding. Also highly recommended is the companion volume "Choral Music in the Twentieth Century".
