Herein, John Cage recalls the turning point in his career; Ben Johnston criticizes the operas of his teacher Harry Partch; La Monte Young attributes his creative discipline to a Morman childhood; and much more. The results are revelatory conversations with some of America's most radical musical innovators.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Duckworth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Da Capo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/07\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 504\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.23w x 0.94d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780306808937\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWilliam Duckworth\u003c\/b\u003e is a composer, professor of music at Bucknell University, author of two books on music theory, and editor of \u003ci\u003eJohn Cage at 75.\u003c\/i\u003e He lives in New Jersey.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Da Capo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125810229363,"sku":"9.78031E+12","price":31.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_66066f44-d097-4450-868e-6250152365f3.jpg?v=1764766200","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/talking-music-conversations-with-john-cage-philip-glass-laurie-anderson-and-5-generations-of-american-experimental-composers-9780306808937","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
