Roger Sessions: How a "Difficult" Composer Got That Way
Prausnitz, Frederik (Director of Conducting Program the Peabody Conservatory of Music, Director of Conducting Program the Peabody Conservatory of Music, Johns Hopkins University)
For more than half of his long life, composer Roger Sessions was a commanding figure on the American musical scene. Yet he was a "difficult" composer. As the story is told, often in the composer's own words, the complex picture emerges of a remarkable man who, gradually learned, not very willingly, to accept his unexpected lot.
