Irwin Bazelon, one of the most original figures in American
music in the second half of the 20th century, devoted his life to
the art of composition. He was also well known for his musical
compositions for films, television, commercials, and documentaries.
His music was inspired by his experiences in the fast-paced
environments of Chicago and New York. This major bibliography
presents a biographical sketch, which details the influence of city
life on the composer's artistic creativity, a catalogue of his
compositions and performances, and a discography. A bibliography
includes excerpts from the composer's lectures and other
unpublished writings.
This thorough research tool will appeal to scholars of
20th-century music and to Bazelon fans. An archive of the
composer's collections is included, and the separate book sections
are cross-referenced throughout.
