A sophisticated interplay between diverse philosophies and aesthetics works together with musical analyses to present a complex portrait. . . . Ertan systematically teases out what the "Orient" meant for Rudhyar, showing how he found integration or "wholeness," as he put it, in Asian and Indian arts and religious practices.. . . Ertan draws meaningful lines of influence between Rudhyar and composers from Ruth Crawford Seeger to Edgard Varèse to Carl Ruggles. . . . Persuasively resituates Rudhyar in twentieth-century musical thought. . . . Deniz Ertan's great gift is to bring [Rudhyar] back into the light in one totality, so his achievements in music, astrology, painting, and writing can be seen within the unity of a single-minded aesthetic and philosophical approach. AMERICAN MUSIC [S. Andrew Granade] An intriguing portrait. . . . Rudhyar was a true pioneer in the western undestanding of [non-Western] musics. . . .

MUSICAL TIMES [Kevin O'Connell] Thoroughly researched and richly presented. . . . Fills a gap in the history of 20th-century music and culture.

BOOK NEWS It takes a special breadth, expertise, and sympathy to do justice to Dane Rudhyar, whose heart was in music but who earned his living writing about astrology.

Synopsis
Dane Rudhyar (1895-1985) was a unique figure in twentieth-century American culture: a composer, thinker, painter, poet, novelist, and expert on astrology. His thought and work transcended disciplinary boundaries, integrating perspectives that were, and often still are, generally pursued in isolation from each other. Rudhyar's musical compositions -- such as the remarkable Three Paeans for piano -- were often described at the time as ultramodern and deeply philosophical. Noted music critic Nicolas Slonimsky described Rudhyar's music as "searching and challenging . . . the explanation of a puzzle of human existence." Rudhyar's sometimes startling paintings and his brilliantly articulate prose writings on a variety of subjects reached outward to pre-Renaissance and non-Western traditions. Novelist Henry Miller praised Rudhyar's ability "to show the relation between the parts, and finally to relate the parts to the whole. . . . He is so many things precisely because his sight is always focused on the central core, on the source from which all flows." Dane Rudhyar: His Music, Thought, and Art is the first full-length study of this remarkable polymath and citizen of the world and universe. The book is enriched with numerous color illustrations of Rudhyar's paintings and with examples drawn from his music and writings. Deniz Ertan has taught at the Universities of Manchester and Nottingham., The first full-length study of a remarkable composer, writer, painter, and expert on astrology, based on Rudhyar's personal archives., The first full-length study of a remarkable composer, writer, painter, and expert on astrology, based on Rudhyar's personal archives.
