Book by Cowell Henry
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
Since its original publication in 1930, Henry Cowell's New Musical Resources has become recognised as one of the few seminal technical studies to be written by a twentieth-century composer. In 1971, Virgil Thomson hailed it as 'a classic'. Cowell aimed to 'point out the influence the overtone series has exerted on music throughout its history, how many musical materials of all ages are related to it, and how ... a large palette of musical materials can be assembled'. In this respect Cowell was anticipating many of the ideas to be realized in electronic music by Stockhausen and others. For this 1996 edition, David Nicholls has provided an explanatory essay and annotations to Cowell's text. The essay traces the sources for the book and attempts to place Cowell's theories in the broader context of musical modernism.

The essay traces the sources for the book and attempts to place Cowell's theories in the broader context of musical modernism. Contemporary music makes almost universal use of materials formerly considered unusable. These materials are in some degree acceptable to almost all music-lovers, and there is a tendency on the part of critics and the sophisticated public to be somewhat bored by new music which uses only old-fashioned means. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780521496513
