Sounds of the Metropolis: The 19th-Century Popular Music Revolution in London, New York, Paris, and Vienna
Scott, Derek B. (Professor of Critical Musicology, Professor of Critical Musicology, University of Leeds)
The phrase "popular music revolution" may instantly bring to mind such twentieth-century musical movements as jazz and rock 'n' roll. In Sounds of the Metropolis, however, Derek Scott argues that the first popular music revolution actually occurred in the nineteenth century, illustrating how a distinct group of popular styles first began to assert their independence and values. London, New York, Paris, and Vienna feature prominently as cities in which thechallenge to the classical tradition was strongest, and in which original and influential forms of popular music arose, from Viennese waltz and polka to vaudeville and cabaret.
