Community of Readers Title Time's Echo: Music, Memory, and the Second World War Author Jeremy Eichler Call Number N/A Location Other Rating Recommended Book Review "Time's Echo" is a cultural and public historical (and archival) examination of WWII and the Holocaust from the perspective of writers and early 20th-century classical composers, mostly the latter. It's a critical look into the "living memory" of those events through the musical lens of famous works by Arnold Schoenberg, Richard Strauss, Dmitri Shostakovich, and Benjamin Britten -- all shaped by their experiences. The book is a great example of how music is a narrative of the past. Submitted By Carl Privette Department or Major Leatherby Libraries Status Staff Chapman Email privette@chapman.edu
