Quotation and Cultural Meaning in Twentieth-Century Music - New Perspectives in Music History and Criticism
Metzer, David (University of British Columbia, Vancouver)

This book explores the practice, examining how musicians used quotation to participate in the cultural dialogues sustained around such areas as race, childhood, madness and the mass media.
