Synopsis
In this well-researched and balanced account, Ronald Taylor examines the emotional and intellectual forces that fueled Kurt Weill's unique contribution to twentieth-century music, tracing the shifting career of the enigmatic and underappreciated composer who was forced to trade Berlin for Broadway by the burgeoning Nazi terror of the 1930s.

Review
"This is the first full-length biography of Weill to benefit from the unexpected release of family letters in the early 1980s. . . . The author's description of the cultural and social factors that contributed to Weill's metamorphoses as a composer makes this account of his life more compelling than any previous one." -- Choice
