Music in Charleston from 1732-1919 is a comprehensive book written by Elizabeth P. Simons that explores the rich musical history of Charleston, South Carolina. The book covers a period of almost two centuries, from the early colonial era to the end of World War I, and examines the various musical traditions that flourished in the city during this time.Simons begins by providing an overview of the city's early musical landscape, focusing on the role of music in religious and social contexts. She then delves into the emergence of classical music in Charleston, tracing the development of orchestral and choral music and the establishment of music schools and societies.The book also explores the significant contributions of African American musicians to the Charleston music scene, including the development of gospel music and the emergence of jazz in the early 20th century.Throughout the book, Simons provides detailed accounts of notable musicians, performances, and events, and includes numerous photographs, illustrations, and musical examples to bring the history of Charleston's music to life.Overall, Music in Charleston from 1732-1919 is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of American music, and particularly the unique musical heritage of Charleston, South Carolina.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
