American composer, conductor, timpanist and percussionist. He studied at Columbia University (BA 1951, MA 1954), where his teachers included Beeson, Cowell, Luening and Ussachevsky. He also studied privately with Morris Goldenberg and Saul Goodman at the Juilliard School of Music. In addition to performing as percussionist (1955–61) and principal timpanist (1962–81) with the Los Angeles PO, Kraft served as the orchestra’s assistant conductor (1969–72) and composer-in-residence and founder/director of LAPO New Music Group (1981–5). He has also acted as composer-in-residence for the Cheltenham New Music Festival (1986). His honours include fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation and the Norlin/MacDowell Colony, residencies at the Rockefeller Foundation Center in Bellagio (1975, 1996), and awards from the Kennedy Center, the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, the ACA, the Australia Symphony, Vienna Modern Masters and other organizations.
Most of Kraft’s music from the 1960s and 70s is serial. He has also experimented with electronic music. During the 1980s rhythmic elements derived from jazz and Impressionistic harmonies were absorbed into his style. Although he is particularly known for his percussion works, from 1996 to 1998 he devoted his compositional energies exclusively to his first opera, Red Azalea
