Complete Citation:
Sharp, Mary Elizabeth. “A Survey of Musical Quotation from 1940-1975.” M.M. thesis, University of Louisville, 1979.
Notes:

References to Ives: in Part 1, “Introduction”: “The use of common material such as folk tunes, hymns, and patriotic songs will not be included since the music is not from the concert tradition. However, this creates a problem of inconsistency in some cases. Charles Ives quotes music from popular material together with concert pieces which have programmatic signifi-cance.”; in Part 5, “Early Twentieth-Century Practices in the Use of Quotation”: “The very same motive (Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5) is quoted by Ives in the Concord Sonata and is used as a cyclic device to depict fate and the character of Beethoven himself’; and in Parts 7-10, “Charles Ives' Use of Quotation.”
