  Schuman, Persichetti, and Mennin were three of the most significant American composers of the 20th century; yet their music has largely disappeared from view since their respective deaths. This book provides a thorough examination of their lives and work, and thereby clarifies their considerable individuality, both as composers and as human beings.
