Brahms in the Priesthood of Art: Gender and Art Religion in the Nineteenth-Century German Musical Imagination
McManus, Laurie (Associate Professor of Music History and Literature, Associate Professor of Music History and Literature, Shenandoah University)
The book is about the critical reception of Brahms and his music during his lifetime and shortly after. It explores how the idea of "art religion"--the idea that art could replace religion for spirituality and how musicians could be priests of music--and gender notions intersected in that reception.
