The Hardcover Edition was issued without a DJ. Presents Tim Rutherford-Johnson's "After The Fall: Modern Composition And Culture Since 1989". A breezy, articulate, and compelling overview of the state of the art. Which art is constantly evolving, changing, and developing as one reads and listens and collects as best as one can. So it's good to have, for the thrilling adventure, a reliable guide that cannot possibly be definitive. "Probably the most authoritative international chronicler of the composed music of our time, and in this book he manages the near-impossible feat of mapping a field that is changing by the day. He is a rigorous thinker yet he avoids dogma and shows unexpected sympathies. What results is an indispensable work of intellectual passion" (Alex Ross). "Studded as it is with insights, Rutherford-Johnson's book is even more remarkable - and valuable - for the perspectives it offers on the period since the climacteric of 1989. Here are some new tools for thinking, re-thinking, and thinking on" (Paul Griffiths). "It's a sign that a book is a conversation changer when that book creates a need for its own existence. A radical re-writing of what we might require from a historical analysis of new music, taking an ecological approach that accounts for race, gender, technologies, and institutional and socio-economic forces. A compelling and exhilarating read" (Liza Lim). An absolute "must-have" title for Tim Rutherford-Johnson and music lover/collectors. This title is a classic text on contemporary music.
