Almost Nothing with Luc Ferrari (Critical Ear)
- Used Book in Good Condition
Perhaps the only postwar classical composer to invest avant-garde music with overt eroticism, Luc Ferrari (1929â€“2005) was one of Franceâ€™s leading composers of the twentieth century, relentlessly experimental while always preserving his keen sense of humor. Ferrari was a first-generation exponent of musique concrÃ¨te, and made brilliant use of field recordings to develop sensual, proto-ambient narrative that he termed â€œanecdotal musicâ€ or â€œcinema for the ear.â€ Perhaps the most notorious instance of this approach was Danses Organiques (1973), for which Ferrari recorded the meeting and sexual encounter of two young women, cut with other ambient and music sound. In his final decades Ferrari was championed by David Grubbs (of Gastr del Sol), who brought his music to a postrock audience. Almost Nothing is the first publication on this composer. It alternates Jacqueline Cauxâ€™s interviews with 14 â€œimaginary autobiographiesâ€ by the composer, offering a lively account of new musicâ€™s most revolutionary era.
