WELCOME TO THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE
OF COMPOSER, EDWARD GOLD
My style tends towards a French sound with a German
structural approach. I try to keep some sense of harmonic and melodic
direction as well as clarity in whatever I write. I think my being
eclectic is appropriate to the present time since I feel much of the
twentieth century was too narrowly based, with its pointless insistence
on atonality and serialism. Perhaps we need to go to the opposite
extreme for a while. My own occasional use of atonality and serial
techniques is always under the guidance of my ear and may have, as some
have suggested, a tonal basis after all.
