"The American History through Music" series examines the many different styles of music that have played a significant part in our nation's history. While volumes in this series show the multifaceted roles of music in culture, they also use music as a lens through which readers may study American social history. The authors present in-depth analyses of American musical genres, significant musicians, technological innovations, and the many connections between music and the realms of art, politics, and daily life.Chapters of this book present accessible narratives on music and its cultural resonances. Here, music theory and technique is broken down for the lay reader. Each volume presents a chapter of alphabetically arranged entries on significant people and terms.During World War II, popular singers and musicians from Big Bands such as Benny Goodman's entered into service, and groups like the Andrews Sisters entertained the troops and participated in war bond drives. Songs had wartime themes, reflecting victories in battle, loss of loved ones, and the longing for home and family. Country music, not often covered in volumes on music of this era, is given special treatment, as are other genres such as Broadway music, folk, and blues.
