American Composers

We recently got a ton of scores in here at the Music Library. So many that we can’t really contain it to one post. Therefore in the interest of globalism and international unity, the scores will be categorized into American and European composers.

So let’s start with the American Composers, shall we?

Among other things, we received some Elliot Carter and Steve Reich. However the majority seem to be works by John Cage. In celebration of this, I thought I would present Mr. Cage himself playing a cactus. Awesome, right?
