Portrait of Antheil by Man Ray
from My Thirty Years' War
A new photo archive of Antheil and his family is now available at the Other Minds site. About George Antheil Ulysses Antheil wrote over 300 musical works in all major genres, including symphonies, chamber works, film music, and operas. He was extremely outspoken and articulate, and wrote numerous articles, as well as an autobiography, Bad Boy of Music , which is still in print As a young composer, he considered himself to be quite the revolutionary, and his music, especially in his early career, employed many unusual sound sources and combinations of instruments. In many ways, both musical and technical, he was far ahead of his time. His concerts routinely caused riots all over Europe, which at the time was considered a sign of genius. Besides composing, Antheil was an excellent writer, an inventor, and a student of many disciplines, including endocrinology, criminal justice, and military history. He was co-holder of a remarkable patent (with actress Hedy Lamarr) for a "secret communications system" which is today in wide use and known as "spread-spectrum technology" — although neither he nor Lamarr ever received a dime for it.

He was of German descent. He studied piano from the age of six, and from age thirteen commuted to Philadelphia for lessons in theory and composition. During 1920 he studied with Bloch and in 1922 moved to Berlin to pursue a career as a concert pianist, but abandoned the idea. In 1923 he lived and wrote in Paris, and from 1924 onwards began writing for films. In 1930 he published a mystery novel and in 1945 his autobiography, Bad Boy of Music.

"The Bad Boy of Music"
GEORGE ANTHEIL
George Antheil was born in Trenton, New Jersey on July 8, 1900. He studied with Ernest Bloch, and Clark Smith at the Phildelphia Conservatory. In 1922, he traveled to Europe to pursue a career as a concert pianist, performing in rectials featuring many of his own works. These included "Mechanisms","Airplane Sonata", and "Sonata Savage." The riots that often ensued contributed to the composer's growing notoriety. It was while Antheil was in Berlin, that he met the composer who would have a important influence on his compostional style, Igor Stravinsky.
The Parisian artistic community, including James Joyce, Ezra Pund, and Satie among others, championed Antheil as musical spokesman for their modernist ideas. Antheil's crowing achievment during this period would be the spectacular "BALLET MECANIQUE" a milestone in the literature for percussion ensembel. This piece literally shattered conventions and, in a production complete with airplane propellers, created an tremendous uproar at its 1927 American premire in Carnegie Hall.
SOME NOTES ON THE "BALLET MECHANIQUE"
George cause quit a stir with his first publically known modernist musical compositions, the Ballet Mechanique, which is the first time amy composer used machines. Antheil collaborated with Ferdinand Leger, on a film using the same name, and it captures the spirit of the music of those times. One of the interesting things about George is that he was not bound by conventional concepts of what "Classical Music" should be. He wanted to focus on the music and delivering it to the listener with the greatest possible flexibility and accuracy.

George Antheil
There are few more remarkable stories than that of George Antheil's brief period in the spot-lit center of the Parisian stage during the 1920s. Subsequent history has much diminished Antheil's significance, reducing him to little more than a footnote in most accounts of the post Great War avant-garde, but in recent years a steady stream of recordings has strengthened his reputation as a resourceful and versatile composer, well worth exhumation. Born in 1900, the son of a Trenton, New Jersey cobbler, Antheil studied composition with Sternberg and Bloch in the US before the patronage of Mrs. Curtis Bok transported Antheil to Europe and into the fatally attractive orbit of Stravinsky. That inveterate trend-spotter Ezra Pound latched onto Antheil's futuristic works, calling him "possibly the first American-born musician to be taken seriously" in 1924. Even Aaron Copland recalled "when I arrived [in Europe] George had all Paris by the ear". It was with a remarkable series of works that George made his debut: Airplane Sonata (1921): Symphony for 5 Instruments (1922): Sonata Sauvage and an attempt at 'musical cubism', the Jazz Sonata (1923). He also wrote two sonatas for Violin and Piano for Pound's companion and, later, Vivaldi scholar Olga Rudge, one of which included a drum part for Pound himself. However Antheil's principal calling card from this period is his To achieve this the bulging wallet of Mrs. Bok was once again flattened in order to commission the direct punching of the piano rolls so as to achieve superhuman chords and rhythms, in a way that anticipated Conlon Nancarrow. Antheil orchestrated the music in 1952, but the raw energy of the earlier version speaks far louder.

    Biography and appreciation of String Quartet Nr. 2.
    http://www.xs4all.nl/~gaud/oud/biobak/a/antheil.htm
    GEORGE ANTHEIL - U.S.A. 1900-1959 - STRING QUARTET NR. 2
    String Quartet No.2 (1927) In the second string quartet, as in all of the neoclassic compositions, Antheil replaces the rhythmic energy of his multimetric homophony with a melodic and textural vigor born of alternating dissonant melodies accompanied by tonally contrasting ostinato figures with chromatic melodies above triadic chords, both interspersed with sections of bitonal counterpoint. Antheil's jarring use of melodic and harmonic chromaticism within a non-directional harmonic framework would become a persistent feature in all of his later compositions. Formally, the four-movement quartet presages a feature of the composer's subsequent structural organizations: cyclic unification through the transformation of material from earlier movements in the last movement (in this case, the final movement contains a reworking of several motives from the third movement).
    Antheil viewed his neoclassic period as a transition first to the "literalism" of his political opera, Transatlantic (1927-28), and ultimately, to the formation of what he termed "a fundamentally American" style in his neoromantic film, symphonic, chamber and operatic scores (Antheil returned to America in 1933 where he would live until his death on 12 February 1959). The neoclassic works bridge Antheil's turn from European modernism to American popularism: the first string quartet is an example of the former and the second sets him on the road towards the latter.

The self-proclaimed "bad boy of music," Antheil's music is marked by sustained rhythmic vitality, harmonic pungency, and melodic vigor.

His crowning achievement during this period would be the spectacular , a milestone in the literature for percussion ensemble. The last 20 years of his life would be a fertile period, producing four symphonies as well as several operas including the farcical Volpone . A remarkable achievement in satire and caricature, Volpone is set to a musical score that combines a heterogeneous harmonic language with thematic versatility, rhythmic energy, mosaic construction, and colorfully programmatic timbres all hallmarks of the mature Antheil style.
