In C and Me: listen [del.icio.us]
Steve Hicken talks about In C and its impact. "A good deal of the talk about In C and its liberating power centers on how it and its popular and critical reception provided a new tonal alternative to an “hegemony” of pantonal and serial music in the prestigious music schools of the Northeastern United States. Enough testimony of this regional atmosphere exists to take it seriously and to understand how Riley would have been received by those looking for something different."Originally posted by pbailey68 from paulbailey.us (beta), ReBlogged by newmusicrebloggers on Jun 23, 2009 at 11:10 PM
