Supplementary Materials: Conlon Nancarrow and Player Pianos My musician/composer friend, Gil, introduced me to the remarkable music of Conlon Nancarrow. Nancarrow, living in exile near Mexico City, spent over forty years painstakingly composing a series of "Studies" for player pianos. Using a device similar to those used in commercial piano-roll houses, he would spend months or years punching out his compositions directly on rolls. Nancarrow was born October 27, 1912 in Texarkana, Arkansas, and studied music in Cincinnati and Boston with Walter Piston, Nicolas Slonimsky, and Roger Sessions. In 1937, he fought against the Facist government in Spain as part of the Lincoln Brigade. He relocated to Mexico in 1940 after harassment from the U. S. government on returning to this country. Nancarrow died on August 10, 1997. His studies for player piano started in 1949, each numbered and in inexact chronological order. The music, at times humorous and overwhelming, often could not be played by the human hands and carries a number of influences. His experience as a jazz trumpeter during the 1930's shows through in some of the music's improvisational and "bluesy" quality. One can hear hints of the music of Africa and India, as Nancarrow explores our perception of rhythm, time, and texture. There has been a rediscovery of Nancarrow's work in recent years, with the release of his music on CD and books dealing with the composer.

Conlon Nancarrow Project Conlon Nancarrow has been hailed as one of the most important American composers of the 20th century. His work has been performed by an impressive array of contemporary musicians ( Ursula Oppens , the Arditti and Kronos Quartets among them), his name invoked in scholarly texts. In addition to the lucrative commissions he received before his death in 1997, he was one of the first recipients of the MacArthur "genius grants" in the early 1980’s. And yet it was not always this way. For most of his long life, Nancarrow was all but completely unknown by the musical establishment. Indeed, few artists of any discipline have experienced such a dramatic reversal in the trajectory of their careers. Even so, he is still practically invisible to the general public – his name not resonating like those of renowned fellow American composers like Philip Glass John Cage , or even Charles Ives That such obscurity has dogged Nancarrow can be attributed in no small part to the composer's music itself – unprecedented constructions of multiple meters and tempos that are extremely difficult or even impossible for musicians to play. Rather than compromise his exploration of the limits of rhythmic complexity, Nancarrow, beginning in the late 1940's and continuing for 35 years, chose to "compose" exclusively for that jukebox of a bygone era, the player piano heartland , but lived most of his life in Mexico, where (after having fought against fascism in Spain with the famous

Home Catalogue Related Areas: Music in the Twentieth Century New titles Email For updates on new titles in: The Music of Conlon Nancarrow Kyle Gann Temporarily unavailable - available from March 2003 The expatriate American experimentalist composer Conlon Nancarrow is increasingly recognised as having had one of the most innovative musical minds of this century. His music, almost all written for player piano, is the most rhythmically complex ever written, couched in intricate contrapuntal systems using up to twelve different tempi at the same time. Yet despite its complexity, Nancarrow’s music drew its early influences from the jazz pianism of Art Tatum and Earl Hines and from the rhythms of Indian music; Nancarrow’s whirlwinds of notes are joyously physical in their energy. Composed in almost complete isolation from 1940, this music has achieved international fame only in the last few years. The author has discussed Nancarrow’s music with him, and analyses sixty-five works, virtually the composer’s complete output. He also includes a biographical chapter containing much information never before published. Reviews ‘ excellent new title by Village Voice critic Kyle Gann, the first book on the composer and a compendious survey of his work.’Wire
