		The notion of counterpoise is a useful one in describing the music of the late Jacob Druckman: weight set against weight, things held in balance and so revealed.
		Druckman's style, especially in his later works, was to play with dualities, with contrasting impulses and ideas, deftly, with elegance and respect.
		Druckman, who died in 1996, left behind a body of work that is greatly treasured by performers, especially in the U.S., but is still under-recorded.

		Jacob Druckman was born in Philadelphia in 1928.

	Los Angeles Philharmonic Association - Piece Detail
		Druckman’s last major work, Counterpoise, was originally composed for soprano Dawn Upshaw and the Philadelphia Orchestra, in which form it was first performed under conductor Wolfgang Sawallisch on April 28, 1994.
		Critic Mark Swed’s general description of his music fits this work well: "At the heart of the works of Jacob Druckman lies the bold, sure, and often arrestingly physical dramatic gesture Yet Druckman’s scores have always exhibited another characteristic as well: that of careful structure, built with meticulous attention to detail.
		The process of integrating these two sides of his character -- the passionately physical expression with the cooler intellectual organization of pitches and rhythms -- [was] a consistent factor throughout the composer’s development."
