Perspectives on Sylvano Bussotti

236 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The music of Sylvano Bussotti seems to achieve the squaring of the circle: in many ways radical, avant-garde, and innovative, it manifests, at the same time, an idea of beauty, with a strong sensual as well as personal side, not easily reconciled with the avant-garde movements of the 20th century. This volume explores the work of the Italian composer from a multi-perspective and polyvalent approach, addressing cultural questions of identity and authorship, issues of gender and non-normative sexuality, historical and political contexts, as well as notational and performance-practical aspects. Investigating new archival material, examining scores and reconstructing performances, the contributions to this book give insights into Bussotti’s creative processes, collaborations, and aesthetics, underscoring his significance in modernist and postmodern discourses.
