Devoted himself to the exploration of sound and colour, both instrumental and electronic.  Noted for his ingenious and cogent formal designs, as in the interwoven structures of String Quartet No.3. His orchestral works included commissions from the New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony, Baltimore Symphony and Radio France. As the New York Philharmonic's composer-in-residence (1982-85) he explored the emerging New Romanticism in the programming of three controversial and influential Horizons festivals. Noted teacher at Juilliard, Bard College, Tanglewood and Yale University.  Windows, a 1972 work for orchestra, earned him the Pulitzer Prize \u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Steve Weiss Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43805231480886,"sku":"PEB 6","price":37.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/3055\/1350\/files\/druckman-reflections-on-the-nature-of-water-m.jpg?v=1773464041","url":"https:\/\/www.steveweissmusic.com\/products\/druckman-reflections-on-the-nature-of-water","provider":"Steve Weiss Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
