French (1883 – 1965)
Edgard Varèse (December 22, 1883 – November 6, 1965) was a French-born composer, who moved to the United States in 1915, and took American citizenship in 1926. Varèse’s music features an emphasis on timbre and “organized sound.” His use of new instruments and electronic resources led to his being known as the “Father of Electronic Music” while Henry Miller described him as “The Stratospheric Colossus of Sound.”
He was one of the biggest influences for Frank Zappa, as well as for Rahsaan Roland Kirk.

Genius. Edgard Varese should be made required listening for the world. I'd play this for my children until they understood why it was so great.

FUCK guys!! :( ...i tried to get some tickets to see him since he's 'On Tour' and all...but, MAN! shit sold out like nobody's business and scalpers are charging more than i've ever heard for a ticket... but it's pretty cool that they got to raise him from the dead (even if it IS a bit gimmicky -i mean, let's be honest here people...-), and all because dude apparently REALLY wanted for the 'later fans' to see him...real class act, this Mr. 'Edgard Varèse'.
