Bio
Crumb was an American composer who studied at Illinois and Michigan before taking teaching positions at Colorado, Pennsylvania, Harvard, and Tanglewood. He composed in an avant-garde style but rejected serialism for his own surrealist approach. He was awarded a Fullbright Fellowship, the Koussevitzky Foundation, the Guggenheim Foundation, a Pulitzer, and a Grammy. He died at age 92 only two months ago this year.
