Samenvatting

With a colleague's candour, sympathy, and expertise, Steenhuisen discusses the creative process with thirty-two contemporaries.

It is a common misconception that it is difficult or impossible to discuss music, and that a piece of music simply speaks to the listener--or not. In these conversations with composers, Paul Steenhuisen offers readers insight into the creative process and suggests ways of listening to and interpreting new music. Steenhuisen talks one-on-one with thirty-two of his contemporaries (twenty-six of whom are Canadian) with a colleague’s candour, sympathy, and expertise. These rare intimations afford fellow composers, musicologists, students, and inquisitive listeners a comparative look into the lives of the people who write some of the most innovative, challenging, and sublime music today. Paul Steenhuisen is a composer of art music for acoustic and electroacoustic media. He also writes articles on contemporary music. In addition to earning his doctoral degree in composition from UBC under the direction of Keith Hamel, he studied with Louis Andriessen at the Royal Conservatoire in The Hague, privately with Michael Finnissy in London, England, and with Tristan Murail at IRCAM (Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris). Between 1998 and 2000, Paul Steenhuisen was composer-in-residence with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, and he taught Composition at the University of Alberta until 2007. He currently works by commission and with HypoSurface in Boston, MA.
