The Fifties
3.00 Popular Music
The fifties was a decade of enormous change in popular music: for the first time, the culture of youth, with its fanatical obsession with change, became a powerful and unstoppable force, egged on to greater extremes by advances in technology. The musical was in its golden age, and then there was Elvis. Mike Hurst attempts to unravel the fifties with contributions from key figures of the era and music ranging from Chuck Berry to Leonard Bernstein.
