Rezensionen

'...compelling...a significant contribution to...both Musicology and Sound Studies...the ultimate value of Solomos' work is that it provides a centralized location for the ideas of the theorist-practitioners who aimed to reframe their labor as sound creation.' Kevin John Bozelka, Sound Studies, Volume 7, Issue 1 (2021)

'Without agreeing with everything [...] I really appreciate Makis Solomos' thesis-based music history of the long 20th century, because it provides both an overview of compositional directions and detailed analyses, it organizes both theoretical and aesthetic debates [...] and it develops both a thesis and its implications.' Julia H Schroëder, Journal of the German Musicological Society, Volume 73, Issue 4, (January 2020)
