	Music for the Nation: About the Collection (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The bound up piles of music on the floor are undoubtedly part of the vast numbers of copyright deposits that formed the nucleus of the Library's music collections and which, taken as a whole, constitute one of the Library's greatest treasures.
		Even so, much music material was left in the Copyright Office and was not transferred to the Music Division until some time in the 1950s.
		Although the Music Division possesses many great musical treasures and rarities, the items deposited for copyright (numbering in the millions) make up the heart of its collections, and are, in the aggregate, perhaps the greatest treasure of all.

		These were to aid them, he stated, "in giving the 'Joplin Rags' that weird and intoxicating effect intended by the composer."

		Joplin was the son of a former slave, and grew up in a musical family.
		Early in 1917, Joplin suffered a mental collapse, and he destroyed a number of his unpublished pieces.

	Béla Bartók
		There he deepened his acquaintance with Wagner, though it was the music of Strauss, which he met at the Budapest premiere of Also sprach Zarathustra in 1902, that had most influence.
		Meanwhile his music was beginning to be influenced by this activity and by the music of Debussy that Kodály had brought back from Paris: both opened the way to new, modal kinds of harmony and irregular metre.
		The move from inward chromaticism to a glowing major (though modally tinged) tonality is basic to the Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta (1936) and the Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion (1937), both written for performance in Switzerland at a time when the political situation in Hungary was growing unsympathetic.

	Music of Irving Berlin, Page 1 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Whether for Broadway musicals or films, for humorous songs or romantic ballads, his compositions are celebrated for their appealing melodies and memorable lyrics.
		The music is OK, but a little disjointed and the lyrics, though nice, suffer from the tune's deficiencies and the two never really come together in the way that a hit song manages to do.
		I believe much of music is inspired by personal events as music is such a language of emotion.

	Paul Hindemith (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)

		Much of his chamber music was written in 1917-24, including four of his six quartets and numerous sonatas, and he was also involved in promoting chamber music through his administrative work for the Donaueschingen Festival (1923-30).
		His concern with so many branches of music sprang from a sense of ethical responsibility that inevitably became more acute with the rise of the Nazis.

		In the concert room where Miss Lerner was playing, a transmitter was placed, and by means of a recently perfected wireless telephone apparatus, the music was sent out over a large radius.
		The experience of listening to this concert was far more novel than participating in the demonstrations which have recently been tried successfully, when singers and speakers in San Francisco were heard at meetings and banquets in New York and other cities.
		To play the piano while isolated in mid-ocean and have the notes float thru the air and bring pleasure to those far distant, does much toward the complete annihilation of space and causes us to wonder what tomorrow may bring forth.

	New Music: Piano Compositions
		During his lifetime (1897-1965), he composed a vast amount of symphonic, chamber and vocal music, taught what were probably the first classes in world music, founded the remarkable New Music Quarterly, and wrote the pioneering theoretical book New Music Resources.
		But his most radical and influential contribution remains his large body of piano music, which he started writing as a teenager.
		Featuring new music pianists Sarah Cahill, Joseph Kubera, Chris Brown and Sorrel Hays, the recording is live, full of ambient audience and performer sounds -- from the early chord cluster works to polyrhythmic counterpoint to work in the interior of the piano.

	Amazon.com: Complete Original Dixieland Jazz Band (1917-1936): Music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		One of the painful ironies of American musical history is that the first jazz band ever to record was the Original Dixieland Jazz Band, a quintet of white New Orleans musicians who had moved north to Chicago in 1916 and began recording in New York a year later.
		More painful still, their first recordings to be released, "Livery Stable Blues" and "Original Dixieland One-Step," would launch a national jazz craze and a host of imitators, with the fad passing before any of the great African American New Orleans musicians--Kid Ory, Sidney Bechet, Jelly Roll Morton, King Oliver, Louis Armstrong--first entered recording studios.
		This music is not as good as it would become with Louis Armstrong, King Oliver, and Jelly Roll Morton, however it is still historic and essential music for Dixieland fans.
