George Perle
Provided by Wikipedia
George Perle
(6 May 1915 – 23 January 2009) was an American
composer
and
music theorist
. As a composer, his music was largely
atonal
, using methods similar to the
twelve-tone technique
of the
Second Viennese School
. This
serialist
style, and atonality in general, was the subject of much of his theoretical writings. His 1962 book, ''Serial Composition and Atonality: An Introduction to the Music of Schoenberg, Berg, and Webern'' remains a standard text for
20th-century classical music
theory. Among Perle's awards was the 1986
Pulitzer Prize for Music
for his
Wind Quintet No. 4
.
