The National Music of America and Its Sources by Louis C. Elson is a comprehensive exploration of the origins and development of American music. The book delves into the diverse cultural influences that have shaped American music, from the music of Native Americans and African slaves to the folk songs of European immigrants. Elson examines the evolution of various musical genres such as jazz, blues, country, and rock and roll, and how they reflect America's cultural and social history. The author also explores the contributions of American composers such as Aaron Copland and George Gershwin to the classical music canon. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American music and its impact on the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
