It has become increasingly apparent in recent decades that
Stravinsky's music has had far-reaching influence on the
development of music in our century. Stravinsky's modernist
innovations - evident in such features as his music's
discontinuity, its stasis, its ritualized anti-narrative, its novel
rhythmic and formal structures, its articulation of new kinds of
musical time, and its reinterpretation of music and materials from
the past - have helped shape much of the music of our time. This
book represents a first substantial attempt to evaluate
Stravinsky's technical and aesthetic legacy. In Part I ('The
Stravinsky Legacy'), Jonathan Cross explores the breadth of
Stravinsky's impact on the music of composers as diverse as Adams,
Andriessen, Birtwistle, Boulez, Carter, Messiaen, Reich,
Stockhausen, Tippett, Varese and Xenakis. In Part II ('Stravinsky
Reheard') he returns to Stravinsky's neoclassical music to examine
how recent developments in composition and musicology affect our
understanding of and analytical approaches to Stravinsky.
