Résumé

The groundbreaking Audio Culture : Readings in Modem Music maps the aural and discursive terrain of vanguard music today, highlighting the various rewirings of musical composition and performance that have taken place over the past few decades. The book explores the interconnections among such forms as minimalism, indeterminacy, musique concrete, free improvisation, experimental music, avant-rock, dub reggae, ambient music, hip hop, and techno via writings by philosophers, cultural theorists, and composers.
This revised and expanded edition of Audio Culture contains twenty-five additional essays, including four newly-commissioned pieces. It includes writing by some of the most important musical thinkers of the past half-century, among them John Cage, Brian Eno, Ornette Coleman, Pauline Oliveros, Maryanne Amocher, Glenn Gould, Umberto Eco, Jacques Attali, Simon Reynolds, Eliane Radigue, David Toop, John Zorn, Karlheinz Stockhausen, and many others.
Each essay has its own short introduction, helping readers place essays within musical, historical, and conceptual contexts. The volume concludes with a glossary, a timeline, and an extensive discography.
