Series: Oxford Monographs on Music

Music Criticism in Vienna, 1896-97 This is a close analysis of the work of some two dozen music critics in Vienna from October 1896 to December 1897, a period which saw the deaths of Bruckner and Brahms and the rise of Mahler and Richard Strauss. It reconstructs in detail the climate of musical debate in a major musical centre.
