Extractions: I was listening in the car to the local classical radio station ("warning: may cause drowsiness") and lo and behold, the taped announcer promised music by Villa-Lobos and new music somehow related to New Jersey. They played Brazilian Medley but it's now an hour later and nothing related to the Garden State. And the last 10 works played list hasn't been updated for awhile. ? Fortunately, one can never get enough of that Muffat and Albinoni. So, how does one find notable composers from New Jersey? T he composers guild of new jersey lists numerous candidates but it's not clear if these are residents or what.

When Sessions took a teaching position at Princeton University, Babbitt followed him there. He continued his studiesearning, in 1942, an M.F.A. in musicand himself joined the Princeton faculty in 1938. This began an enduring relationship with Princetonincluding a brief stint as a teacher of mathematics during World War IIfrom which Babbitt finally retired as professor emeritus in 1984. While at Princeton, Babbitt served, from 1959 to 1984, as director of the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center. He also taught composition at the Juilliard School of Music, beginning in 1973, and gave guest lectures at numerous institutions of higher learning in both the United States and abroad.

Extractions: Like his compositions, Milton Babbitt's writings about music have exerted an extraordinary influence on postwar music and thinking about music. In essays and public addresses spanning fifty years, Babbitt has grappled profoundly with central questions in the composition and apprehension of music. These writings range from personal memoirs and critical reviews to closely reasoned metatheoretical speculations and technical exegesis. In the history of music theory, there has been only a small handful of figures who have produced work of comparable stature. Taken as a whole, Babbitt's writings are not only an invaluable testimony to his thinkinga priceless primary source for the intellectual and cultural history of the second half of the twentieth centurybut also a remarkable achievement in their own right. Prior to this collection, Babbitt's writings were scattered through a wide variety of journals, books, and magazinesmany hard to find and some unavailableand often contained typographical errors and editorial corruptions of various kinds. This volume of almost fifty pieces gathers, corrects, and annotates virtually everything of significance that Babbitt has written. The result is complete, authoritative, and fully accessiblethe definitive source of Babbitt's influential ideas.

Extractions: Babbitt's father was a mathematician, and it was mathematics that Babbitt intended to study when he entered the University of Pennsylvania in 1931. However, he soon left, and went to New York University to study music instead. There he became interested in the music of the composers of the Second Viennese School, and went on to write a number of articles on twelve tone music including the first description of combinatoriality and a serial "time-point" technique. After receiving his degree in 1935, he studied under Roger Sessions, first privately, later at Princeton University.
