Andre Jolivet (1905-1974) wobbled back and forth between the tonal and atonal. In his professional life he was Music Director of the Comedie Francais, which paid the bills.
This is a piece for trumpet and percussion section in seven movements, written in 1970. Im not going to pretend that I understand it or even like it. But Im open to new music, and I can say that this piece does not commit the cardinal sin of music, which is to be boring. Jolivet is too good a composer to be boring. This piece gets the heart pumping and th bile flowing. Its infuriating, but not boring.
