The Rest Is Noise; Listening to the Twentieth Century by Alex Ross


Serious 20th Century "Classical" Music diverged off from the popular culture audience, who were scared away by the atonal screeching. Or did it? The author lovingly describes some of his favourite moments in this genre of music, and makes the argument that this "difficult" art has finally infiltrated our current pop culture in movie soundtracks and electronica experiments.



Gustav Mahler


Arnold Schoenberg


Igor Stravinsky


Bertolt Brecht & Kurt Weill


Karlheinz Stockhausen
