About this book
Entries for 187 composers, arranged alphabetically from Joseph Achron, make up this 1961 guide by David Ewen, an American writer on music, to musical masterworks in a lighter vein. Bach, Beethoven and Brahms appear beside Gershwin, Cole Porter, John Philip Sousa, Leroy Anderson and Richard Rodgers, so concert favourites share the book with operetta, ballet and show music. Most entries run a page or a few, while Gershwin gets about nine.
