Biografía de George Crumb

George Crumb

George Crumb (24 de octubre de 1929) es un compositor estadounidense de música clásica. Se distingue por explorar con sonidos inusuales.

Crumb nació en Virginia Occidental, y comenzó a componer desde muy joven. Estudió música primero en la Universidad de Illinois, y luego brevemente en Berlín antes de regresar a estudiar a los Estados Unidos en la Universidad de Michigan.

Aunque sus partituras y grabaciones se venden bien, Crumb se ha ganado la vida sobre todo como profesor. Su primer trabajo fue en un college de Virginia, antes de llegar a ser profesor de piano y de composición en 1958. En 1965 comenzó una larga asociación con la Universidad de Pensilvania, llegando a ser profesor Annenberg de Humanidades en 1983. Algunos de sus estudiantes más prominentes incluyen a Margaret Brouwer, Uri Caine, Osvaldo Golijov, Jennifer Higdon y Gerald Levinson.

Crumb se retiró de la enseñanza en 1997, aunque a principios de 2002 fue designado con David Burge a una Residencia Común...
