The Roger Reynolds Collection at the Library of Congress
“This new presentation provides a record–to be updated periodically–of representative materials that composer Roger Reynolds has donated to the Library of Congress. The presence of the Roger Reynolds Collection in the Library’s Music Division provides a rare opportunity for future composers and music scholars to study the work of an important composer who has kept extensive, detailed notes and sketches that trace the development of his compositional methods. The ‘I Hear America Singing’ presentation includes an interview with Reynolds with interactive footnotes, as well as sound and score examples that illustrate Reynolds’ work and allow the user to interact with the materials in the collection. Other features of the site include the complete score of Reynolds’ “Transfigured Wind III” for solo flute, chamber ensemble and quadraphonic computer processed sound. This is accompanied by a sound recording of a performance of that work and an in-depth interview with the composer, featuring his own technical analysis of the work and its creation.”
