Edison Denisov
Edison Denisov (1929-1996) was a Russian composer born in Tomsk, Siberia. He studied mathematics before turning to music, trained at the Moscow Conservatory and received encouragement from Dmitri Shostakovich. He belonged to the nonconformist wing of Soviet music, and his openness to Western techniques brought him official criticism and frequent bans on performances. Denisov became known abroad in 1965, when his vocal cycle Le soleil des Incas was performed in Darmstadt and Paris.
