"Part one, 'The Survival of Tonality', contains separate studies of Bartók and Stravinsky, as well as general chapters on symphonic music and opera which focus on specific compositions such as Sibelius's Seventh, Prokofiev's Sixth, Shostakovich's Tenth and Janácek's Káta Kabanová. Part Two is concerned with the twelve-note technique, first as developed by its inventor, Schoenberg, and his two great pupils Berg and Webern, and then as modified or extended by such diverse figures as the later Stravinsky, Sessions, Gerhard, Dallapiccola and Babbitt. In Part Three more radical processes stemming from Satie, Varèse and Cage, and pursued by the next generation of avant-garde composers, including Boulez, Berio and Stockhausen, are considered alongside the independent achievements of Tippett, Messiaen and Carter." Size: Octavo. Nº de ref. del artículo: 002048
