About the book >.>.> Twenty leading authorities contribute individual individual surveys to this book and they present clearly what has been happening in the contemporary music-world in their particular country. Some composers whose work is now becoming known include Olivier Messiaen and Pierre Boulez (France), Luigi Nono and Niccol? Castig-lioni (Italy), Frank Martin (Switzerland), Karl Heinz Stockhausen and Hans Werner Henze (Germany), Anton Heiller (Austria), Bohuslav lav Martinu (Czecho-slovakia), Witold Lutoslawski (Poland), Sergei Prokofiev, Aram Khachaturian, and Dimitri Shostakovich (Russia), but there are many other interesting figures whose names have yet to be established and they are discussed here. The work is, then, a history of European music since the Second World War and sometimes some earlier; a panorama showing present-day composition in all its manifestations from the most conservative to the most ad-vanced; a study of 'the present state of state music' in twenty-two countries including Is.
