"One of the cardinal books in the astounding Buffalo Bookshelf we've seen accrete in the past 15 years...A glorious celebration of the other Buffalo, the aristocratic, innovative city in which a cultural miracle took place whose inspiring residue is still with us, even in an era of decline." --Jeff Simon, Buffalo News"In the 1960s a lively New Music scene began at the State University of New York at Buffalo which culminated with the appointment of Morton Feldman as director in the 1970s. He began the June in Buffalo festival which continues to this day. Renée Levine was there at the very beginning as Managing Director and her highly informative book is undoubtedly the best primary source we will ever have about New Music in Buffalo and its offshoots during this tumultuous period."-Steve Reich"I had long known that the Creative Associates at Buffalo in the 1960s and '70s were an unprecedented hothouse of wild musical exploration, but Renée Levine Packer's insightful and eye-opening eye-witness account makes me realize that I had underestimated the case."-Kyle Gann, author of Music Downtown: Writings from the Village Voice and No Such Thing as Silence: John Cage's 4'33""Renée Levine Packer has written a compelling and valuable account of an important moment in the history of modernism in America and the many worlds of the avant-garde. It is an indispensable document for students of the history of twentieth-century music."-Leon Botstein, President of Bard College, Music Director of the American Symphony Orchestra and the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra, "One of the cardinal books in the astounding Buffalo Bookshelf we've seen accrete in the past 15 years...A glorious celebration of the other Buffalo, the aristocratic, innovative city in which a cultural miracle took place whose inspiring residue is still with us, even in an era of decline." --Jeff Simon,Buffalo News "In the 1960s a lively New Music scene began at the State University of New York at Buffalo which culminated with the appointment of Morton Feldman as director in the 1970s.

Synopsis

This Life of Sounds portrays an important and previously unexplored corner of the history of new music in America: the Center of the Creative and Performing Arts in the State University of New York at Buffalo. Composers Lukas Foss (the Center's founder), Lejaren Hiller, and Morton Feldman were the music directors over the life of "the Buffalo group," during the years 1964-1980. Based on Foss's plan, the Rockefeller Foundation provided annual fellowships for young composers and virtuoso instrumentalists to live in Buffalo for up to two years, thus creating a cadre of like-minded musicians who would spend their time studying, creating, and performing difficult - often controversial - new work. The now legendary group of musicians (some would say "musical outlaws") who participated in the Buffalo group included Pulitzer Prize winner George Crumb, Terry Riley, Cornelius Cardew, Maryanne Amacher, Frederic Rzewski, David Tudor, Julius Eastman, and many more. Composers John Cage, Jim Tenney, Iannis Xenakis and others all figure in the story as well. The book provides valuable accounts of the Center's influential concert series, Evenings for New Music, performed in Buffalo, New York and throughout Europe; its famous recording of Terry Riley's In C; the political activism of the time; and the intersection of academic, private, and institutional funding for the arts. Life magazine declared in an article about the 1965 Festival of the Arts Today titled, "Can This Be Buffalo?", "Buffalo exploded last month in a two-week avant garde festival that was bigger and hipper than anything ever held in Paris or New York..." The concerts, the festivals, and the adventurous musical climate attracted filmmakers and young visual artists resulting in what one person called "one of those kinds of places the way people talk about Vienna in 1900-1910.", This book is an invaluable chronicle of an exuberant time of artistic exploration and experimentation populated by now legendary figures such as John Cage, Morton Feldman, Cornelius Cardew, Terry Riley, Julius Eastman, David Tudor, and many others who were part of this under-known chapter of late 20th century music history. Levine Packer brings it to life once again., This Life of Sounds portrays an important and previously unexplored corner of the history of new music in America: the Center of the Creative and Performing Arts int eh State University of New York at Buffalo.
