Strong on Music: New York Music Scene in the Days of George Templeton Strong

Vera Brodsky Lawrence

This work, the second volume of Strong on Music , carries its account of the 19th-century New York music scene into the 1850s. Using music entries from George Templeton Strong’s journals as a point of departure, it provides a portrait of a vibrant musical culture. Each chapter presents one year in the musical life of New York City, with commentary accompanied by both excerpts from Strong’s diaries and a selection of music criticism and comment from the period.
