George Rochberg

Opis

Finished just weeks before his death, George Rochberg's eloquent memoir offers a detailed look at his fruitful life as a composer, publisher, and teacher of music. The volume traces a life immersed in music, with early study under George Szell and Gian Carlo Menotti and later long-term collaborations with the Concord Quartet and commissions for major orchestras and opera companies. Reflecting on music, aesthetics, colleagues, and the life of the creative mind, Five Lines, Four Spaces: The World of My Music captures not only the spirit but also the intellectual climate of the twentieth-century musical world.
