This is the first book which deals with the school of American
repetitive music, also know as minimal music. The early work of La
Monte Young, Terry Riley, Steve Reich and Philip Glass is discussed
in the context of traditional Western music. Minimal music thus
emerges as the latest stage in a development leading from
Schoenberg, Webern, Stockhausen and Cage. In considering the
philosophical thinking of Deleuze and Lyotard, the representatives
of the so-called French ' libidinal philosophy', and of Adorno, the
author examines the degree to which the 'ecstatic dimension' is
present in this music or is even consciously introduced to it.
