Iannis Xenakis Kraanerg

With the benefit of access to sketches and recordings in the Xenakis Archives, James Harley presents analytical and critical discussions of Kraanerg's music and reception, including the relationship of the score to the recorded parts. Harley is a composer with first-hand experience of the interlocking fields of acoustic and electronic music that Xenakis made his own. The book is accompanied by a CD, which helps to conceptualize the extremely complex score.
