Carl Ruggles (Composer)
Born: 11th March 1876, Marion, Mass. United States
Died: 24th October 1971, Bennington, Vermont, United States
Nationality: American
Charles Sprague "Carl" Ruggles was an American composer. His pieces employed "dissonant counterpoint", a term coined by Charles Seeger to describe Ruggles' music. His method of atonal counterpoint was based on a non-serial technique of avoiding repeating a pitch class until a generally fixed number such as eight pitch classes intervened. He wrote painstakingly slowly so his output is quite small.
Famous for his prickly personality, Ruggles was nonetheless friends with Henry Cowell, Edgard Varèse, Charles Ives, Thomas Hart Benton, Ruth Crawford Seeger, and Charles Seeger.
