Review


"From Paris to Peoria is an absorbing, readable book in which music history interacts with social history. The detailed account Lott offers, rich in quotes from primary sources and musical examples, modifies the generalizations and corrects the errors of earlier accounts."--Piano Today


"Lott enables us to look at the question of virtuosi's impact and accomplishments in an entirely new light. [He] has derived a satisfying scheme for the presentation of abundance of information." -- Institute for Studies in American Music Review


"Lott's engaging book...greatly ads to our understanding of music in nineteenth-century America and its role in shaping modern attitudes toward the place of Western European music in American cultural life."--Notes


"Grateful scholars of the New World appropriation of Old World music will profit--immeasurably--from Lott's industry and discernment."--Los Angeles Times
