520 8  Annotation|bThe first decades of the twentieth century 
       were a fertile and fascinating period in American musical 
       history. This book and the two CDs that accompany it 
       present an exceptional collection of interviews with and 
       about the most significant musical figures of the era. 
       Tapping the unparalleled materials contained in the Oral 
       History American Music archive at Yale University, 
       Composers' Voices from Ives to Ellingtonis a unique 
       account of what it was like for musicians and composers to
       live and work in those years. It is also the story of the 
       making of the archive, as told by Vivian Perlis, who 
       personally conducted many of the interviews. Music 
       aficionados can now hear Eubie Blake describe the birth of
       ragtime or listen to a firsthand account of how Ira 
       Gershwin came to write those famous lines in "Let's Call 
       the Whole Thing Off." In-depth interviews with such 
       figures as Henry Cowell, Virgil Thomson, Aaron Copland, 
       and Duke Ellington are included in the book, which also 
       features chapter introductions and fascinating sidebars, 
       illustrations, and anecdotes throughout. Two CDs complete 
       the set, enabling today's listener to enjoy the 
       remarkablen experience of hearing the actual voices and 
       the music of American composers of the early twentieth 
       century.
