Robert Ashley
Robert Ashley is a contemporary opera composer. His operas are far from traditional, and he explains that english is a language where the consonants count, not the vowels, unlike many European languages, and so the text in operas written in English should be delivered much faster.
Ashley is the founder of the ONCE group and festival, as well as a past member of the Sonic Arts Union along with David Behram, Alvin Lucier, andGordon Mumma.
