* Describes the creative energy of two highly respected 20th
century artists, Iannis Xenakis both as engineer and composer, and
Roger Reynolds, Pulitzer prize winning musician in 1989 * Will
appeal to the professional sector of musicians and architects, and
students in both of these disciplines * Connects the creative path
of architecture and music, i.e., Xenakis' treatment of "light" in
an architectural context parallels his use of varying textural
density in his music. * Analyzes chamber works Achorripsis,
Thallein, and his string quartet, Tetras, which pertain to the
interactive house design

Mind Models supplies a roadmap for navigating the complex network
of aesthetic concerns faced by contemporary composers and their
audiences. When it was first published in 1975, Mind Models
captured perfectly the essential pluralism of the contemporary
music world, with its tremendous diversity of musical styles and
compositional methods Reynolds has now revisited this text and
renewed it based on developments over the past 25 years, changes
that have-if anything-underscored that the issues he first
addressed in this book remain of vital concern to virtually every
serious composer. This new edition of Mind Models reintroduces and
renews a classic work on 20th century composition, one that has
remained relevant for over a quarter century-and should remain a
central reading for decades to come.
Stemming from his appointment as the Randolph Rothschild Guest
Composer at Peabody from 1992-1993, Roger Reynolds has written a
series of essays that will take the reader into the mind of a
practicing composer. This book will produce meaningful discourse on
how composer actually work, instead of being hidden from the public
eye. Understanding the condition of music in contemporary society
requires insight into how composers conduct their work, and this
book will facilitate musical understanding and will be of great
interest to composers, theorists, cognitive and perceptual
scientists as well as the music lover. Also includes 136 musical
examples.
