Preferring the concept of organized sound to that
of music, the French-born composer Edgard Varèse exercised a strong influence on
the contemporary avant-garde, particularly in the United States, where he spent
some time from 1915 until 1928, when he returned to Paris. He returned to
America in 1933, eventually finding the necessary backing for his
electro-acoustic research. He enjoyed an earlier career as a conductor of some
distinction, but is now remembered chiefly for his experiment in composition and
for the influence his work exerted over younger composers.
