The Routledge Handbook to the Music of Alfred Schnittke is a
comprehensive study of the work of one of the most important
Russian composers of the late 20th century. Each piece is discussed
in detail, with particular attention to the composer's
groundbreaking polystylism, as well as his unique approach to
musical symbolism and his deep engagement with Christian themes.
This is the first publication to look at Schnittke's output in its
entirety, and for most works it represents either the first ever
published analysis or the first in a language other than Russian.
The volume presents new research from the Ivashkin-Schnittke
Archive at Goldsmiths, University of London and the collection of
Schnittke's compositional sketches at the Julliard Library in New
York. It also draws on the substantial research on Schnittke's
music published in the Russian language. Including a work list and
bibliography of primary and secondary sources, this is an essential
reference for all those interested in Russian music, 20th-century
music and performance studies.
