'He once said about some composer who was successful "He composes merde and gets gold in exchange. I produce gold and what do I get, merde."' Edgard Varese left barely a dozen completed works, which are rarely performed. Yet composers from Cage to Boulez consider them among the most important music of this century. Roger Wright assesses his achievements in a profile with Pierre Boulez , John Cage
Elliott Carter , Morton Feldman Gunther Schuller Nicolas Slonimsky
Vladimir Ussachevsky and lannis Xenakis.
