Overview Overview For all the modern world’s obsession with technology, Conlon Nancarrow remains the only classical composer to have established a lasting reputation on the basis of music written almost entirely for a machine. Not only does his remarkable sequence of player-piano studies prove that it’s possible to do without human performers entirely, they also offer a compelling exploration of the myriad new structures and sonorities obtainable through mechanical means. Born in 1912 to a respectable family of Arkansas worthies, Nancarrow spent a wayward youth learning trumpet, developing a passion for jazz and determining to become a musician. In 1934, braving parental displeasure, he trooped off to Boston to study composition with arch-academics Roger Sessions and Walter Piston , an experience which seems to have borne little immediate fruit, although he would later emphasize the value of Sessions’ obsessive contrapuntal training.

Sample Pages Profile Conlon Nancarrow was an American-born composer who lived most of his life in Mexico. Nancarrow is remembered almost exclusively for the pieces he wrote for the player piano. He was one of the first composers to use musical instruments as mechanical machines, making them play far beyond human performance ability. He lived most of his life in complete isolation, not becoming widely known until the 1980s. Today, he is remembered as one of the most original and unusual composers of the 20th century. Nancarrow was born in Texarkana, Arkansas. He played trumpet in a jazz band in his youth, before studying music first in Cincinnati, Ohio and later in Boston, Massachusetts with Roger Sessions, Walter Piston and Nicolas Slonimsky. He met Arnold Schoenberg during that composer's brief stay in Boston in 1933.
