Childhood and nostalgia in the works of Charles Ives -- Black and white : quotations in Duke Ellington's Black and tan fantasy -- Interlude : chronological scenes -- Madness -- The promise of the past : Rochberg, Berio, and Stockhausen -- Sampling and thievery -- Covered up : borrowing in Sandra Bernhard's Without you I'm nothing.
"This book explores that vibrant practice, examining how musicians used quotation to participate in the cultural dialogues sustained around such areas as race, childhood, madness, and the mass media. The focus of this study is broad, discussing pieces in a spectrum of musical styles (classical, experimental, jazz, and popular) as well as works in the other arts. Part of the young and quickly growing field of study examining musical borrowing, this book takes an important step in discussing the wider cultural ramifications of quotation."--BOOK JACKET.
