La Monte Young
La Monte Young is one of the most influential underground composers of the 20th century. His early experiments with long tones in 1957-58, fusing as they did interests in both twelve-tone music and Cagean conceptualism, led directly to the style known today as minimalism. Inspired by Young's long tones, Terry Riley began experimenting with loops, which led to his groundbreaking work In C , the premiere performance of which included Steve Reich. Young's relentless saxophone solos of the early '60s (he once beat Eric Dolphy for a sax chair) roared with the energy of rock and the pristine tuning of Indian ragas. His rule-based improvisations under the auspices of the Theatre of Eternal Music, though not heard publicly in decades, remain an icon of the psychedelic age, and were a direct influence on the Velvet Underground and artrock. In 1964 Young began what may always prove his greatest work: The Well-Tuned Piano , an improvisatory yet highly structured piano work that started at 45 minutes and has, in most recent performances, extended over six hours, containing more than 50 themes and chordal areas. Young is also legendary for his sine-tone installations, assemblages of droning overtones in complex arrays of prime numbers that now explore pitch space up to the 2304th harmonic. Kyle Gann's scholarly writings on La Monte Young include two articles: "La Monte Young's The Well-Tuned Piano in Perspectives of New Music , Volume 31 Number 1 (Winter 1993).

La Monte Young
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. La Monte Young (born October 14 ) is an American composer whose eccentric works have been classified by some as avant garde or experimental . His compositions question the nature of music and often stress elements of performance not normally indicated. He was born in Bern, Idaho . His family moved several times in his childhood while his father searched for work before settling in Los Angeles, California . He studied at Los Angeles City College , and was such a good saxophonist that he came out ahead of Eric Dolphy in an audition for the school's jazz band. As well as Dolphy, he also played alongside Ornette Coleman Don Cherry and Billy Higgins He later entered the University of California at Los Angeles to study music, and later still the

    La Monte Young
    La Monte Young has pioneered the concept of extended time durations in contemporary music for over 40 years. He contributed extensively to the study of just intonation and to the development of rational number based tuning systems that are used in his periodic composite sound waveform environments, as well as in many of his major performance works. Presentations of Young's work in the U.S. and Europe, as well as his theoretical writings, gradually influenced a group of composers to create a static, periodic music which became known as Minimalism. Musician magazine stated, "As the acknowledged father of minimalism and guru emeritus to the British art-rock school, his influence is pervasive," and in 1985 the Los Angeles Herald Examiner wrote, " for the past quarter of a century he has been the most influential composer in America. Maybe in the world." In Minimalism:Origins , 1993, Edward Strickland added, "Young is now widely recognized as the originator of the most influential classical music style of the final third of the twentieth century."

    La Monte Young (born Bern, Idaho, 1935) has pioneered the concept of extended time durations in contemporary music for over 35 years. As well, his work has played a central role in the development of the use of Just Intonation in 20th-century music and the growth of the Minimalist style. Early involved in jazz, during the 1950s La Monte Young was a performer in Los Angeles of jazz saxophone, playing with Eric Dolphy, Ornette Coleman, Billy Higgins, and Don Cherry, among others. After graduate composition studies at the University of California at Berkeley, he moved to New York City, where he directed the first loft concert series in that city. He has lived in New York ever since. With the founding in 1962 of The Theatre of Eternal Music, Mr. Young began work on his ongoing ensemble work The Tortoise, His Dreams and Journeys (1964-present). Over the years, members of The Theatre of Eternal Music have included Terry Riley, John Cale, Jon Gibson, Jon Hassell, and Marian Zazeela . His other major ongoing work has been his The Well-Tuned Piano

    ...we determined at a certain point that our medium was time.
    an interview by Ian Nagoski. [Excerpted]

    IN: One of the things which has always struck me as very exceptional about your work is its emphasis on Heavenliness. You once made a remark in an interview in the Theatre of Mixed Means book, something about people being swept away to Heaven, having the feeling... LY: I said that if people didn't feel swept away to Heaven, I was failing. And I really feel that is an absolutely essential element. This concept of Heaven can be probably thought of in a fairly broad way. In essence, something Pandit Pran Nath used to point out when he was teaching us about intonation, he would say that when you become perfectly in tune in your singing, this is meeting to God. He said, at that moment that you become perfectly in tune, you leave your body, because your focus becomes so intense — the concentration that it takes to be exactly in tune is so enormous that you don't think any more about your body.
    ...what I am interested in in music is becoming a receptor for a higher state of information that can flow through me and then become manifest physically as music... IN: Your sense of beauty seems very much tied up in your sense of time. I'd like to hear from you about how you've found your sense of time to be different from the rest of the world.

    "It was all just Intonation , a drone. We tuned to the sixty cycle hum we'd use as a third harmonic. It was called "dream music," which happened to be fortuitous because if the third harmonic is 60 cycles, the tonic is 10 which is, you know, the alpha tone you have when you sleep and dream..." - John Cale on his work with La Monte Young and Young's just intonation tuning system.
    One half of the early Velvet Underground of Lou Reed, John Cale, Sterling Morrison, and Angus MacLise had come directly from the tutorship of Minimalist avant garde composer La Monte Young, bringing along with them the hip sensibilities of the downtown Bohemian artists, as well as a wealth of novel, largely experimental, musical ideologies and ideas. One has only to listen to any one of a number of Young's tapes from 1959 through 1965 to hear the influence that VU co-founder Cale brought to the Velvets from his year or so with Young as part of his Dream Syndicate/Theater of Eternal Music in 1963 through mid-64, just prior to forming the VU with Lou Reed and drummer Angus MacLise also of the Dream Syndicate. The Syndicate at the time was comprised of La Monte Young, Marian Zazeela, John Cale, Angus MacLise, Tony Conrad, and Terry Jennings. Tapes of compositions Young recorded before the Syndicate, and after are bursting with early VU type sounds in the form of sustained and repetitious note patterns, loud volume, and white noise. But the similarities are especially evident on the tapes of the Syndicate with the formative VU, when MacLise was still drumming for them and

    The Well-Tuned Piano La Monte Young's The Well-Tuned Piano By Kyle Gann La Monte Young began work on his magnum opus, The Well-Tuned Piano , in 1964. For 27 years he kept the tuning a secret - only a few close friends knew it. In 1991, with the use of a calculator, a tunable Yamaha DX7, and a CD player with an A-to-B button, I tuned my synthesizer to the Gramavision recording of the work and figured out ten pitches of the tuning. Why not all 12? Because one pitch, G#, never appears on that recording of the work, and another, C#, only appears in one five-minute passage on the fifth CD. I told La Monte that I had figured out the tuning and wanted to publish an analysis of the work. He thought it over and agreed that it was time to release the tuning into public discourse. The tuning, in all octaves, is as follows, given first in frequency ratios to the tonic E-flat, then in cents (1/1200ths of an octave) above E-flat: Notes: Eb E F F# G G# A Bb B C C# D Ratios: Cents: (If you don't have enough experience with just intonation to make sense of this chart, try reading the step-by-step Just Intonation Explained section.)
