Autorenporträt

Jonathan Kramer (1942-2004) was one of the most visionary musical thinkers of the second half of the 20th century. In his The Time of Music, he approached the idea of the many different ways that time itself is articulated musically. This book has become influential among composers, theorists, and aestheticians. He was program annotator for both the San Francisco and Cncinnati orchestras, and his notes for the latter were collected in the book Listen to the Music. His undergraduate and graduate studies were at Harvard and University of California Berkeley respectively; he then taught both composition and theory at Oberlin, Yale, University of Cincinnati, and Columbia. He also traveled worldwide as a lecturer and presenter at countless conferences and educational institutions. A recognized and widely performed composer, he worked in a range of genres from solo piano to orchestra.
