pictures

[edit]

This article needs pictures. The article contains links to websites that have pictures of him. I don't know how to get them on the site but if someone could do it for me or explain to me how to do it, that would be awesome! User:wittj

We aren't able to simply take pictures from most websites and put them in Wikipedia articles. Why? Copyrights. Copyrighted material can't appear on Wikipedia. --MatthewUND(talk) 00:05, 19 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Composition style?

[edit]

This section's wording is a little stilted, and, as a result, the text is misleading. Use of tone clusters does not necessarily blur the lines of tonality; in Ives' psalm settings it does, but Clausen's collections are usually diatonic pitch-class sets, so they only reinforce a key area. Moreover, when you take into account the outer-voice leading, local modulations (there are often a few), the context of the surrounding measures, and so on, you find that Clausen folds his washes quite well into an entirely tonal setting. He's an exemplar of post-Whitacre choral writing, and quite good at it; let's not make him out to be a composer he's not.—The Realms of Gold (talk) 16:53, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It appears as though this article may contain original research. At any rate, more citations are needed for each section. The appropriate template messages have been added to the article. Msoul13 (talk) 20:45, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
