- Summary:
- First of a two-part series marking Boulez' forthcoming appointment as music director of The New York Philharmonic. Performance by Boulez and a chamber orchestra of Arnold Schoenberg's "Pierrot Lunaire." With Jan DeGaetani, singer. Boulez has, over a quarter century, carved out a place for himself as the "enfant terrible" of contemporary music and its most successful and uncompromising supporter. He has challenged not only the musical establishment for its lack of attention to modern music, but also the avant garde for pursuing less than valuable experiments.
