American Composers by Edward Strickland

Contains candid, in-depth conversations with American composers.
". Strickland's own deep involvement with the works of these composers [is] revealed by the questions and comments he poses in an appreciative, Paterian way. His profound pleasure in these works also leads him to scrutinize and challenge them intimately." Publishers Weekly " This is an indispensable book about American music ... " Fanfare " ... exhilarating ... Any of the interviews in American Composers will stimulate your curiosity and appetite." Hungry Mind Review " ... not only engaging, but also a useful representation of the major compositional styles of the 1980s and their corresponding practitioners." Notes

Edward Strickland, long a contributing editor to Fanfare, is the author of American Composers: Dialogues on Contemporary Music (also from Indiana University Press). In addition to writing articles on American culture, he has lectured on the topic in North America, Europe, and Asia.
