Indian Diary by Edward Ardizzone

. . . 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

Philip Glass, Keith Jarrett, Meredith Monk, and eight other active American composers reveal a broad spectrum of musical personalities in these candid, in-depth conversations. Witty and articulate, their remarks convey the great vitality, diversity, and distinctiveness of today's American music.


About the Author:
Edward Ardizonne came to England with his family at the age of five. It was these early years, when young Edward and his cousin would skip off from home to spend long days in the docks, that inspired the first Tim book, written by the artist for his own children many years later. Throughout his
lifetime, Ardizzone won many awards for his work, including the very first Kate Greenaway Medal for Tim All Alone. He is now regarded as one of the finest children's illustrators of all time. Oxford was the original publisher of the first Tim book in 1936. Now, in these new paperback editions,
Ardizonne's classic tales of Tim and his adventures by the sea have been reset and each given a fresh, newly designed cover, bringing Ardizonne, yet once again, to a whole new generation of children.
