Description: ISBN10: 0472089420, ISBN13: 9780472089420, [publisher: University of Michigan Press] Softcover Revised and Expanded Edition, University of Michigan Press, 2004, 1st printing. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in NEW condition. "For a sound intended to be comforting, unobtrusive and inoffensive, 'elevator music' has ignited strong and often heated opinions. With an arsenal of historical anecdotes and facts, Joseph Lanza sings seriously, with healthy doses of humor and wit, the praises of this misunderstood musical genre. Lanza traces mood music's mystifying presence from the mind-altering sirens who lured Odysseus to the harp David played to soothe King Saul, but the tale gets more intriguing in the early 20th century, with Erik Satie's 'furniture music' experiments, the birth of the Muzak Corporation, and various science fiction stories that featured mood music as a futuristic staple. Lanza also chronicles the parallel development of the 'easy listening' instrumental, discussing such 'mood maestros' as Ray Conniff, Percy Faith, Andre Kostelanetz and Mantovani. Along the way, Lanza addresses mood music's social and even governmental uses, raising questions about music's role in modern life while challenging aesthetic assumptions. This revised and expanded edition delves deeper into the surreal phenomenon of 'metarock'---the art of reinterpreting rock songs into dreamlike, string-laden, easy-listening alternatives. The author also adds an afterword about some of the actual musicians who arranged and conducted Muzak sessions---respected names like Nelson Riddle. In a current climate where the noises are louder, and the background beats are ever more aggressive, this history of music intended as a pleasing background makes for a captivating read." [cover copy] "Snobby musicologists ignore this fascinating topic, but I learned a lot while being well-entertained by Lanza's delightful book."---Wendy Carlos. "Not until Joseph Lanza's ELEVATOR MUSIC have I been privileged to read what I consider the definitive history of 20th century music. This is it."---Errol Morris. "ELEVATOR MUSIC is a fascinating tour of the sonic inferno we all unconsciously inhabit."---J.G. Ballard. Pristine paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine & bright, clean pages. [Pittsfield, MA, U.S.A.] [Publication Year: 2004]
