Michael Nyman

*Italian language edition* La Musica Sperimentale is a firsthand account of the postwar, essentially Anglo-American musical tradition related to the music and ideas of John Cage. Published in 1974 in English and finally now for the first time in Italian, the text is a classic on radical alternative compositions to the mainstream avant-garde represented by Boulez, Berio, and Stockhausen. Introduction by Brian Eno, Unmissable! "What impresses me is not only the amount of information but also the sensitivity it shows to the 'real charge' of those particular pieces and composers. It is that part that no one could have even come close to. It will undoubtedly become the reference work on that period." - Steve Reich
