Music Assignment #4

ouis ANDRIESSEN is a Dutch contemporary experimental composer:

Andriessen’s “Workers Union” (1975) is specified "for any loud sounding group of instruments"

that performers choose themselves. He does not specify any pitches or melody. 

But the rhythmic patterns are specified in a music score for performers. 

Performances may vary in sonic color (timbre); the rhythms remain the same.

of tape experimental sound art collage pieces in his teens. He studied theater in Boston

and began an experimental theater group in 1975. Moving to New York City, he formed

a band he called The Static. 

Brance performed with Rhys Chatham's Guitar Trio in 1977, a “noise music” experience

formative to his development as a composer. He began composing symphonies for orchestras

of electric guitars and percussion, which blended droning industrial cacophony and microtonality.
