About

In a series of wide-ranging interviews and discussions, Roger Reynolds discusses various threads woven through his life and music. They include the use of text, thoughts on sound spatialization, site-specifics works, intermedia, technology in music, his compositional methods, and relationships with other composers (including Iannis Xenakis, Toru Takemitsu, John Cage, and Elliott Carter). Composer, author and educator Roger Reynolds is University Professor at the University of California, San Diego. The Roger Reynolds Collection is held at the Library of Congress, and contains manuscripts, sketches, correspondence, recordings and other primary source materials related to Reynolds' life and work. In Parts 5 and 6, Reynolds discusses his life and work with his wife Karen and DC-based friends Kathy Malfa and Thomas DeLio. Topics in Part 6 include collegiality, family life (in Japan and elsewhere), the teaching philosophies of Roberto Gerhard and Ross Lee Finney, apprenticeships and teaching, interactions with composer-colleagues (including Xenakis, Varese, Takemitsu, Nancarrow and Cage), Xenakis' designs of a Desert House for the Reynolds, and other anecdotal recollections.
