Infos

This three-volume work is the most comprehensive study ever undertaken, of the musical compositions of Karlheinz Stockhausen (1928-2007), one of the major figures of Post-World War II classical music in Europe. Stockhausen’s impact on global music-making was huge and he has been influential for a wide range of music makers—in classical music and on music creators in various popular music traditions. Flo Menezes provides both in-depth analytical studies of Stockhausen’s works from his entire career and also places these into broader cultural, technological, political contexts. The three volumes address the three most fundamental phases of Stockhausen's work: Serial Music, Intuitive Music, and Music by Formulas.
