  • A Yankee Musician in Europe

    Carol A Pemberton, Carol Pemberton et al.ARTICLEAmerican Music1992

    By the middle of the nineteenth century Lowell Mason (1792-1872) was probably the most famous native-born musician in America. Concentrating almost exclusively on vocal music he built a spectacular reputation as choir director and teacher. He published many collections of sacred music which sold in unprecedented numbers and made him a household name. In 1837 he travelled to Europe on a little-publicised trip. This was a bold move decades before s…

  • Revisionist Historians

    Open AccessCarol A PembertonARTICLEJournal of Research in Music…1987

    Historians are revisionists in that personal and cultural conditioning is automatically reflected in their interpretations. These influences, coupled with conscious efforts to reexamine material, result in revised interpretations from era to era. The fact that phenomena are interpreted differently over time is illustrated by contrasting views of Lowell Mason during his lifetime and our own era. In his day, Mason was criticized as an opportunist w…
