About

Christian Wolff was born in Nice in 1934. His family emigrated to the USA in the 40’s and Wolff began his musical studies in 1950 under Grete Sultan. His circle of creative friends included artists and musicians, among them John Cage, Morton Feldman, David Tudor, choreographer Merce Cunningham and painters Mark Rothko and Philip Guston. His music reflects the excitement and modernism of this period.

Awards and reviews

April 2009

The Tilbury pieces are cult contemporary classics that disperse beautifully heard scraps of material around a spacious canvas. The Miscellany is an evolving sketchpad documenting Wolff's myriad techniques and obsessions. Libner brings deadpan detachment and a resonant, tactile tone to this inscrutably, always fascinating, whimsical music.
