Listening Through The Dictionary of Composers and Their Music
Ferruccio Busoni (1866-1924)
Bio
With musician parents, Busoni was started early and rose to a concert-level pianist by his teens. He traveled around Europe, teaching in Leipzig, Helsinki, Moscow, and then crossed the Atlantic to teach in Boston. He wrote extensively, particularly exploring microtones and atonality. He transitioned from a Romantic to a more radical even atonal style particularly after World War I.
