Cross Jonathan (edit.) The Cambridge Companion to Stravinsky

Cambridge University Press, 2003, ISBN: 052166330X.Stravinsky's work spanned the major part of the twentieth-century and was engaged with nearly all its principal compositional developments. Reflecting the breadth of his phenomenal achievement, this Companion contains a wide range of essays in three broad sections covering the contexts within which Stravinsky worked-Russian, modernist and compositional, with his key compositions-Russian, neoclassical and serial, and with the reception of his ideas-through performance, analysis and criticism. The volume concludes with an interview with the composer Louis Andriessen and a major re-evaluation of "Stravinsky and us" by Richard Taruskin.
