Description

Composer Mabel Daniels wrote fresh-sounding works performed by renowned orchestras and ensembles during her lifetime, but her works have only recently begun to be performed today. Assessing the rich context of American art music of the first half of the twentieth century, this book accounts for why works by American women composers fell out of favour and why they should be performed more today. Daniels life and works evidence transition in womens roles in composition, the professionalization of American women composers, and the role that Daniels played in the institutionalization of American art music. Daniels unique dual role as a patron-composer is indicative of her transitional status.
