Antheil's 'mechanistic' works made him the rage of the 1920s Parisian artistic community and 'bad boy' of the music scene. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

In fairness to Antheil, I quote from page 138: "If the public still thinks of me at all, it probably thinks of me as the composer of this damned "Ballet Méchanique." It is now strange for me to remember that I actually finished it as long ago as early 1925, twenty years ago - yet I am still listed among the "young American composers"! Therefore, this "Ballet Méchanique" has become to me what the "G Sharp Minor Prelude" must have become to Rachmaninoff: it is frankly my nightmare, this in spite of the fact that since 1925 I have never again touched the idea of "mechanism" in music, either aesthetically or practically, not even in the generically related "Woman with 100 Heads," written in 1933.
