Описание: Renowned composer Jennifer Higdon is best known for her symphonic pieces “Blue Cathedral,” “Concerto for Orchestra,” “City Scape,” “Concerto 4-3” and “Violin Concerto” (2010 Pulitzer Prize). These compositions illustrate her breadth of style and avant-garde technique, inspired by bluegrass and folk melodies. The author examines these works—with commentary by Higdon—as well as the music of her first opera, with a focus on compositional history, musical characteristics, formal analysis and critical reception.
