Information:
Don
Walker was born in 1941 in Ventura, California and recieved a Ph.D. in Composition
from the University of California, Berkeley. He has taught at tthe Univeristy
of California, Sonoma State University, the University of South Florida and Oregon
State University. He has composed over 100 works which have been
awared many prizes. His esthetic stems from the example of Charles Ives. He generally
rejected the pure use of abstraction and post-Webernian serialism and has embraced
all styles and techniques.
There is some wonderful music here by an American
composer who embraced Ives, yet works in that composer's eclectic world mixing
material and procedures from jazz, ethnic and popular musics.
