| Summary: | The article pays tribute to four artists of the music scene, i.e. Bob
Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Patti Smith, and John Luther Adams. It walks
in their footsteps through their autobiographies and features the major
landmarks in their artistic and creative evolution. Despite the various
incongruent traits in their music style, background, or gender, music
autobiographies prove to be valuable assets, based on which correlations
and contrasts can be elucidated, the road to growing into an artist can be
followed, and the creative spirit can be grasped. We hereby conclude that
autobiographies can constitute a bridge towards the artistic soul and deepen
the understanding of how these musicians project themselves as performers
and position themselves in society. |
