Summary:

'Terry Riley's 'In C'' argues that the work holds its place in the canon because of the very challenges it presents to 'classical' music. Carl examines 'In C' in the context of its era, its grounding in aesthetic practices and assumptions, its process of composition, presentation, recording, and dissemination.
