...WHEN Hammond turns to up-beat territory that his stiff demeanor undercuts his enthusiasm. His "Johnny One Note" lacks flair, even though he does well with all the tricky Lorenz Hart lyrics.

His work has an atonal quality that often sounds like Schoenberg's middle-period serialism. Yet Ruggles had no use for the strict twelve-tone row, which he called "a dog chasing its tail." He evolved...
