His music emphasized monophony and corporeality, in contrast to the abstract, polyphonic music prevalent at the time.  His earliest compositions were small-scale pieces to be intoned to instrumental backing; his later works were large-scale, integrated theater productions in which he expected each of the performers to sing, dance, speak, and play instruments.Partch described the theory and practice of his music in his book Genesis of a Music, which he had published  first in 1947, and in an expanded edition in 1974.  A collection of essays, journals, and librettos by Partch was published posthumously as Bitter Music: Collected Journals, Essays, Introductions, and Librettos 1991.   Philip Blackburn edited a collection of Partch’s writings, drawings, scores, and photographs, published as Enclosure 3 in 1997.Partch partially supported himself with the sales of recordings, which he began making in the late 1930s.  He published his recordings under the Gate 5 Records label beginning in 1953.  Towards the end of his life, Columbia Masterworks released records of his works. Partch scored six films by Madeline Tourtelot, starting with 1957’s Windsong, and was the subject of a number of documentaries.Table of ContentsMusic and music theatre[edit]Recordings[edit]Audio[edit]Film[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]Notes[edit]Works cited[edit]External links[edit]Music and music theatre[edit]Seventeen Lyrics by Li Po (1930\u20131933)Two Psalms (1931)The Potion Scene (from Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet) (1931\/1955)The WaywardBarstow: Eight Hitchhikers’ Inscriptions (1941\/1954\/1967)San Francisco: A Setting of the Cries of Two Newsboys on a Street Corner (1943)The Letter (1943)U.S. Highball (1943\/1955)Yankee Doodle Fantasy (1944)Dark Brother (1942\u20131943)Two Settings from Joyce’s Finnegans Wake (1944)“I’m very happy to be telling you about this…” (1945)Two Studies on Ancient Greek Scales (1946)Eleven Intrusions (1949\u20131950)Plectra and Percussion DancesRing Around the Moon (1949\u20131950)Castor and Pollux (1952)Even Wild Horses (1952)Oedipus (1950\/1952\u20131954\/1967)Two Settings from Lewis Carroll (1954)Ulysses at the Edge (1955)The Bewitched (1955\/1973)Windsong (1955)rewritten as Daphne of the Dunes (1967)Revelations in the Courthouse Park (1960)Rotate the Body in All Its Planes (1961)Bless This Home (1961)Water!
