Abstract
Saturday's performance Lou Harrison's Double Concerto for gamelan, violin, and cello was a unique event in a variety of ways. It was a peculiar juxtaposition of various expectations, social roles, and musical elements. Harrison, though denying that his music makes a statement, emphasized to University of Michigan students that acculturation was one of his primary musical interests. This essay explores some of the issues raised by his unique musical synthesis.
