Produktbeschreibung

Messiaen Perspectives 2: Techniques, Influence and Reception analyses Messiaen¿s compositional approach and the repercussions of his music. The first part scrutinizes his compositional technique, while the second charts ways in which Messiaen¿s influence is manifest in the music and careers of Ohana, Xenakis, Murail and Quebecois composers. The third part includes case studies of Messiaen¿s reception in Italy, Spain and the USA. The volume includes an ornithological catalogue of Messiaen¿s birds, collates information on the ¿tombeaux¿ pieces he inspired, and concludes with a critical catalogue of Messiaen¿s musical works.
