It also contains a biography of Mennin, a survey of his symphonies, and an in-depth analysis of his Symphony No. 5, which is representative of his less dissonant, middle style. The analysis of Symphony No. 5 examines its compositional elements, including its use of rhythm, orchestration, harmony, formal structure, and thematic material. An in-depth analysis of Shaw&#8217;s Symphony No. 1 follows, examining the same elements. The appendices include supporting materials and the score to Symphony No. 1.<\/p>\n<ul><li><a title=\"Opens PDF in new window\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.monroecc.edu\/dshaw\/files\/2017\/05\/ShawDissertationTOC.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Abstract, Acknowledgements, Table of Contents (PDF)<\/a><\/li>\n\t<li><a title=\"Opens PDF in new window\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.monroecc.edu\/dshaw\/files\/2017\/05\/ShawDissertationCpt1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Chapter I.
