Description

This title was first published in 2000. Extensive and generously illustrated interviews have been a feature of the lively Danish music periodical "Dansk Musik Tidsskrift" (Danish Music Review) since the 1960s.

Now a long-standing tradition, these "conversations" with influential composers from all over the world are prepared by professional musicians and experienced writers on music.

This volume is a collection of interviews selected from issues published since 1990 by Anders Beyer, the journal's editor-in-chief.

The book gives an up-to-date picture of the North European musical perspectives through interviews with composers from each of the Nordic countries.

These are further complemented by interviews with trend-setting composers from the rest of Europe and America.

The interviews have been edited and translated into English to make them accessible to a wider audience.

The volume features interviews with composers including Erik Bergman, Tikhon Chrennikov, Edison Denisov, Hans Gerfors, Philip Glass, Sofia Gubaidulina and Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen.
