Description: Irreverent commentary on each of the works awarded the Pulitzer Prize from 1943 to 2002 by Paul Reale.
Note: Although Pulitzer Prizes were awarded in other fields from 1917, 1943 is the first year for the award in music. Also, special awards went to George Gershwin in 1998 and Duke Ellington in 1999. The Pulitzer Prize is an award for lifetime achievement as well as recognition for a single, great piece. Sometimes, a work is so influential as to direct it to this arena; however, most of the time, the winners seem to be the result of unseen or draconian politics and Eastcoast prejudice. "Music that is good for you," on many occasions will take center stage, perhaps as the result of a conscience of self criticism from modernist judges. Of course, in recent years political correctness, the new warm and fuzzy mantle of fame, has generated a slew of famous artistic nonentities, or crossover artists which do not write real concert music.
