A master of sound coloration - whether it's his orchestrations or his unusual electronic resources.
I wouldn't go so far to say that he broke ground in these areas other than his extreme uses
of sound forces in his compositions - much in the same manner as someone like Scelsi or
Dumitrescu for instance. The "breaking new ground" aspect is more in line with both Cage and
Stockhausen with their ever-evolving interests in continual change. Tho Stockhausen spent
nearly 30 years on this one major project, his work before and after this time more than made up
for this relatively staid period. Cage too, in differing ways, was in constant search-mode and
delivered beautifully nearly always. During his last six years he did become somewhat comfortably
ensconced in a singular method, but the swift technological change concerning the people's easier
access to information may have been impetus enough for him to search and change yet again if he
would've survived into his 90s. It's a guess, sure, but one based on the way his thinking evolved.
