Description

Explore the history of spectral music with this ground-breaking study from Cambridge University Press. As one of the two most influential compositional movements of the last fifty years, spectral music stands alongside minimalism in its impact on modern composition. This book provides the first in-depth historical overview of the movement, tracing its development in France between 1972 and 1982. The text examines how spectral innovations merged post-war musical techniques with the use of information technology. A primary focus is placed on Gerard Grisey, detailing how he built a distinctive musical style by developing techniques from influential composers such as Messiaen, Xenakis, Ligeti, Stockhausen, and Boulez. This work is an essential resource for those studying music since 1900 and the evolution of contemporary classical styles.
