Scott Richard Johnson USA 1952-2023

In works like

“John Somebody,”

he mixed the structural rigor

Ned Rorem USA 1923-2022

The Pulitzer Prize winner

was best known for his art songs

— and his controversial diaries.

in more ways than one.

The first was through

the music he chose to write.

While he did compose

symphonies,

concertos and operas

— the kinds of pieces

that will win you a Pulitzer —

his reputation rests

on his enormous body

of more than 500 art songs.
