Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a captivating history of music at international expositions from 1851 to 1915. The author notes how the nature of these events shifted from a focus on industry and invention to one that celebrated the arts and culture. The inclusion of musicâ"specifically âgood music,â as the author puts itâ"became an essential component of these events. The author argues that a crucial shift occurred at the 1893 Chicago Worldâs Fair, when the event organizers decided to program a series of symphony concerts led by renowned conductor Theodore Thomas. However, due to poor attendance, these efforts were discontinued before the fair had concluded. The author argues that this failure can be attributed to the fact that the programs were âtoo exclusively classical.â This book provides an insightful look at the challenges of presenting âgood musicâ at international expositions.
