| Noah Creshevsky To Know and Not To Know To Know and Not To Know Tzadik 2007 Noah Creshevshy (1945-2020) was an American composer. His aim was to create sound at once nearly human and tangentially electronic, but never fully one or the other. Allusions to Middle Eastern, Asian, and Western sacred, secular, popular, and classical instrumental and vocal music seek to produce hypothetical performers of indeterminate identity--simultaneously male and female, Western and non-Western, ancient and modern, familiar and unfamiliar.
