The state of contemporary music is dizzyingly diverse in terms of
style, media, traditions, and techniques. How have trends in music
developed over the past decades? Music Composition in the 21st
Century is a guide for composers and students that helps them
navigate the often daunting complexity and abundance of resources
and influences that confront them as they work to achieve a
personal expression. From pop to classical, the book speaks to the
creative ways that new composers mix and synthesize music, creating
a music that exists along a more continuous spectrum rather than in
a series of siloed practices. It pays special attention to a series
of critical issues that have surfaced in recent years, including
harmony, the influence of minimalism, the impact of technology,
strategies of "openness," sound art, collaboration, and
improvisation. Robert Carl identifies an emerging common practice
that allows creators to make more informed aesthetic and technical
decisions and also fosters an inherently positive approach to new
methods.
