Sonic Overload: Alfred Schnittke, Valentin Silvestrov, and Polystylism in the Late USSR
Schmelz, Peter J. (Professor of Musicology, Professor of Musicology, Arizona State University)
Composers Alfred Schnittke and Valentin Silvestrov brought us some of the most memorable music of the late Soviet Union. Sonic Overload traces these composers' attempts to embrace all aspects of the contemporary soundscape, including influences of popular music, rock, and jazz, before they ultimately retreated to more refined sonic structures.
