Olivier Messiaen: Oiseaux exotiques - Landmarks in Music Since 1950
Peter Hill
What makes "Oiseaux exotiques" so important is that it is arguably the first of Messiaen's major works to create a successful synthesis between his music and his passion for ornithology. This book outlines the background to "Oiseaux exotiques", analyses Messiaen's compositional methods, provides a commentary on the music, and more.
