Recenzii
Iddon and Thomas have produced a well-documented, comprehensive volume about the origin, aleatoric compositional processes, indeterminate performance realizations, and critical reception of John Cage's Concert for Piano and Orchestra (1957-58), one of the most important and controversial compositions of the post-WW II era. Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty; professionals.
This extraordinary book gives John Cage's monumental Concert for Piano and Orchestra the "full treatment." Iddon and Thomas examine Cage's revolutionary indeterminate score from multiple perspectives in a virtuoso synthesis of criticism, performance practice, music analysis, sketch studies, and reception history. That a single work has inspired such a massive, multidimensional study vividly demonstrates that the incendiary music of a notorious agent provocateur has now entered the musical mainstream.
A monumental achievement — in considering Cage's watershed Concert with respect to historical context, sketch study and compositional realization, and performance as well as interpretation, Martin Iddon and Philip Thomas have produced a milestone in Cage scholarship.
