These composers come from within and beyond the German-speaking realm, ranging from the Hungarian composer Gy\u00f6rgy Ligeti (1923\u20132006) to the British composer Thomas Ad\u00e8s (1971\u2013) and the American composer Missy Mazzoli (1980\u2013). There are those who wish to expand on Brahms\u2019s musical thinking, such as Detlev Glanert (1960\u2013); those who engage with Brahms by way of offering critical reflection upon the role of history such as Michael Finnissy (1946\u2013); those who respond to Brahms by way of pointed critique, such as Ad\u00e8s; those who attempt to recompose the \u201cparticles\u201d of Brahms\u2019s music as though Brahms himself had not first composed his own pieces, such as Wolfgang Rihm (1952\u2013). There are also composers who respond to the same literature as Brahms, aiming to reconceptualize not only Brahms\u2019s music, but also these literary and poetic works. The broad theme of \u201crecomposing Brahms\u201d has many fascinating intersections with critical theory, as outlined in the theme 2 above.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"221\" src=\"http:\/\/brahmsonthepacific.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Screenshot-2018-12-12-16.29.59-2-1024x221.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-468\" srcset=\"http:\/\/brahmsonthepacific.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Screenshot-2018-12-12-16.29.59-2-1024x221.png 1024w, http:\/\/brahmsonthepacific.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Screenshot-2018-12-12-16.29.59-2-300x65.png 300w, http:\/\/brahmsonthepacific.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Screenshot-2018-12-12-16.29.59-2-768x165.png 768w, http:\/\/brahmsonthepacific.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Screenshot-2018-12-12-16.29.59-2-1200x259.png 1200w, http:\/\/brahmsonthepacific.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Screenshot-2018-12-12-16.29.59-2.png 1383w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Conference Theme 4: Brahms&#8217;s Composition and Recomposing Brahms The sphere of Brahms\u2019s intellectual world continues to widen as composers from the 1970s to the present compose pieces that respond directly to the music of Brahms in conceptually fascinating and multifaceted ways.
