Rezension zu „Beautiful Monsters: Imagining the Classic in Musical Media “
"This extraordinary work demands and deserves to be read and re-read, time and again, for the ideas presented here are innovative, thought provoking, and among the freshest and most exciting to emerge in recent years."--American Music Teacher "Extremely well written and thought-provoking."--Choice "At the heart of this brilliant ... book is an aesthetic vision of what classical music has come to mean."--Journal of the Society For American Music (Jsam) "Long has succeeded in that most welcome of humanistic scholarly achievements: to take a much-studied and familiar thing and find an original and persuasive way to see it, to hear it, and to understand it."--Journal of Musicological Research "Beautiful Monsters is...doubly significant; it not only problematises the boundary between popular music and classical music, but also questions the disciplinary boundary between popular music studies and musicology."--Popular Music
