Michael Clarke, Frédéric Dufeu, and Peter Manning
Reviews and Awards
"Clarke, Dufeu, and Manning analyze the roots of computer music by exploring the pivotal work, technology, and theories of multiple pioneer computer composers ... Each of the book's nine chapters showcases a pivotal piece ... A companion website allows readers to hear and understand these unique tonalities." -- S. Lenig, CHOICE
"It is rare to find such well-curated analytical material on electroacoustic music. I have known Francis Dhomont's Phonurgie since its creation and talked with the composer about it many times. I analyzed, performed, and taught the work for the past 20 years, and yet, there was so much new information to discover here. This book will deepen my appreciation for these compositions and present an excellent resource for my students." -- Hans Tutschku, Harvard University
