Title: Maestros in America
First published: 2008
Description: "Maestros in America: Conductors in the 21st Century provides short biographical and critical essays of over 100 American conductors - and conductors in America - in the twenty-first century. Roderick L. Sharpe and Jeanne Koekkoek Stierman made their selections based on three categories of persons: American-born; naturalized US citizens; and foreign conductors holding a permanent appointment in the US. In addition, all had to have been active conductors at the start of the new millennium. These criteria allowed the authors to incorporate up-and-comers as well as those more established, offering an extensive cross-section of the upper echelons of the conducting profession."--Jacket.
