Very good in very good dust jacket. Ex-library. ix, 242 pages: illustrations; 24 cm Draw a straight line and follow it: the music and mysticism of La Monte Young 2 reviews Author: Jeremy Neal Grimshaw (Author) Summary: "Recognized as the patriarch of the minimalist movement-Brian Eno once called him "the daddy of us all"--La Monte Young remains an enigma within the music world, one of the most important and yet most elusive composers of the late twentieth century. Early in his career Young almost completely eschewed the conventional musical institutions of publishers, record labels, and venues, in order to create compositions completely unfettered by commercial concerns. Yet at the same time he exercised profound influence on such varied figures as Terry Riley, Cornelius Cardew, Andy Warhol, Yoko Ono, David Lang, The Velvet Underground, and entire branches of electronica and drone music. For half a century, he and his partner and collaborator, Marian Zazeela, have worked in near-seclusion in their Tribeca loft, creating works that explore the furthest extremes of conceptual audacity, technical sophistication, acoustical complexity, and overt spirituality."--Publisher description Print Book, English, 2011 Edition: View all formats and editions Publisher: Oxford University Press, New York, 2011 Genre: Biography Physical Description: ix, 242 pages: illustrations; 24 cm ISBN: 9780199740208, 9780199876525, 0199740208, 0199876525 OCLC Number / Unique Identifier: 703871113 Subjects: Biografie Biographie Biographies Biography Criticism, interpretation, etc Minimal music Minimal music United States History and criticism Musique re?pe?titive E?tats-Unis Histoire et critique Teleologie United States Werkverzeichnis Young, La Monte Young, La Monte 1935-Young, La Monte Criticism and interpretation Young, LaMonte Contents: The tabula (not so) rasa: La Monte Young's early life and early works Getting inside the sound: the works from 1959 to1960 The ideology of the drone: La Monte Young the mystic Space exploration, part 1: telos and stasis in the Dream house Space exploration, part 2: Mormon cosmology and The well-tuned piano After teleology Appendix: Chronological list of compositions
