Robert Lawson Craft was an American conductor and writer whose career was defined by a close collaboration with Igor Stravinsky. A graduate of the Juilliard School, he was notable both for his conducting with major orchestras — including the New York Philharmonic, the Chicago Symphony and the Philadelphia Orchestra — and for his advocacy and promotion of twentieth-century music, including works by Stravinsky, Varèse and the Second Viennese School.
His partnership with Stravinsky, begun in 1948, developed into a deep artistic bond: Craft compiled libretti, organized recordings and coedited several volumes that preserve the composer’s conversations, essays and memoirs. He conducted world premieres of significant late works by Stravinsky and helped establish twelve-tone repertoire in the United States, becoming the first American to conduct pieces such as Berg’s Wozzeck and Lulu.
Author of numerous publications on music and personal memoirs — including the autobiography An Improbable Life and books devoted to Stravinsky — he received international recording awards such as the Grand Prix du Disque and the Edison Prize. His legacy lies in promoting modern repertoire and in the editions and recordings that keep Stravinsky’s musical thought and image alive.
