- This book is the summative achievement of the Franklin’s long-standing research on Mahler, on early twentieth-century European opera and on Hollywood film music. It emerged from six (subsequently expanded) lectures, delivered during a Visiting Bloch Professorship of Music at the University of California at Berkeley (2010). The book draws on previously unstudied source material, such as Austro-German critical and creative writings, film score manuscripts (Brigham Young University Library) and scores of operas by Schreker in the Sigmund Romberg collection at Berkeley. Critics praised the book as an ‘enormously insightful archaeology of the unfortunate ideology of modernism’s anxiety about mass pleasure’.
