Thinking Sound Music : The Life and Works of Robert Erickson Paperback / softback
by Charles Shere, John Rockwell
Part of the Fallen Leaf Monographs on Contemporary Composers series
Paperback / softback
Description
Robert Erickson's music bristles with the quintessential virtues of modernist American composers: intelligence, good humor, lyricism, rich sonorities, inventive sound-colors.
It is firmly rooted in a thorough understanding of all musics now available, from ancient Greece to John Cage, yet it speaks with a characteristically American voice, direct and good-natured, attuned to the vernacular, never condescending to its audiences.
