Product Information
Conlon Nancarrow (1912-1997) was an American-Mexican composer whose works for the player piano exhibit a level of innovation and complexity which remains unmatched even today--his catalogue of works is often considered the Well-Tempered Clavier of the twentieth century. Encounters with Conlon Nancarrow, by J rgen Hocker, is the first extensive biography of Nancarrow. Hocker gives insight to the life and personality of the often reclusive Nancarrow, making use of many as-yet-unpublished sources and interviews as well as a timeline and a comprehensive catalogue of Nancarrow's works. Encounters with Conlon Nancarrow is an indispensable reference book for musicians, musicologists, and player piano collectors, but it is also sure to appeal to anyone with a particular interest in American contemporary music.

Reviews
Famous pianists can be divided into two categories--those who recorded their work for playback on special instruments known as reproducing pianos, operated by paper rolls in the old days and electronically in the new days, and those who did not. Among talented artists of our own generation is Conlon Nancarrow, designated by author Jrgen Hocker in the introduction, as perhaps the greatest pianist of the 20th century. Such judgments vary, of course, but without a doubt Nancarrow's music is wonderful. This great book explores the life of the artist in depth and will be a fine addition to any musical library., Famous pianists can be divided into two categories--those who recorded their work for playback on special instruments known as reproducing pianos, operated by paper rolls in the old days and electronically in the new days, and those who did not.

Such judgments vary, of course, but without a doubt Nancarrow's music is wonderful. This great book explores the life of the artist in depth and will be a fine addition to any musical library., Dr. Hocker's book on Conlon Nancarrow is a delight to read and a great source of information about one of the most original and fascinating composers of the twentieth century. It presents his personal interactions with Nancarrow over a period of years but also Hocker's results in uncovering insightul details into Nancarrow's life history. It will be of considerable interest to those already familiar with Nancarrow and his music, but also to the non-specialist who wants to learn more about this most interesting man and his life., In addition to a compelling portrait of Nancarrow as both man and composer, Hocker provides an interesting account of his own role in supporting Nancarrow's unconventional career. Filled with personal remembrances and documents from Nancarrow's friends and relatives not found elsewhere, this book will surely occupy an important position in future Nancarrow scholarship., Gyrgy Ligeti called Conlon Nancarrow's music the 'greatest discovery since Webern and Ives'. Jrgen Hocker, a devoted scholar and enabler, bought and restored player pianos in order to realize Nancarrow's compositions for these instruments. Encounters with Conlon Nancarrow admiringly describes Nancarrow's works, which are marked by jittery, jangly polyrhythms played at superhuman speeds on machines deliberately prepared to sound harsher than the average piano., György Ligeti called Conlon Nancarrow's music the 'greatest discovery since Webern and Ives'.
