History

Arthur Cohn's Twentieth-Century Music in Western Europe (1965) is a significant musicological text that analyzes the compositions and recordings of 30 European composers from the post-Debussy era, serving as a standard reference for 20th-century music alongside his companion book, The Collector's 20th-Century Music in the Western Hemisphere (1961). The book functions as both a discography and music criticism, focusing on the recorded works of composers like Stravinsky, Schoenberg, and Bartók, and was published by Lippincott in 1965
