SUMMARY

Robert Erickson's music bristles with the quintessential virtues of modernist American composers: intelligence, good humor, lyricism, rich sonorities, inventive sound-colors. It is firmly rooted in a thorough understanding of all musics now available, from ancient Greece to John Cage, yet it speaks with a characteristically American voice, direct and good-natured, attuned to the vernacular, never condescending to its audiences.Shere, Charles is the author of 'Thinking Sound Music The Life and Work of Robert Erickson', published 1997 under ISBN 9780914913337 and ISBN 0914913336.
