- Abstract
"First I am interested", Pollock explains, 'in the relationship between "new music" and the more conservative genre of opera, and the hegemony of modernist music was more firmly established in West Germany. With the title and subtitle of her debut monograph Emily Richmond Pollock raises an array of substantial and timely musicological questions that she tackles from a broad interdisciplinary perspective. Zimmermann's opera has indeed garnered international recognition as a powerful work of what Pollock aptly calls "explosive pluralisms".
