David Crumb (born May 21, 1962[1]) is a contemporary composer born into a musical family. His father is composer George Crumb, and his sister is singer Ann Crumb.[2] His music is not as avant-garde or experimental as his father's; it has been called "attractive, accessible, imaginative, well-crafted" by the Chicago-Sun Times, and "expressive and beautiful" by the American Record Guide: reviews listed on the Presser bio.[1]LifeCrumb received his B.M. from the Eastman School, and his M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania.[3] His most prominent composition teachers were Samuel Adler, Richard Wernick, Chinary Ung, Stephen Jaffe, Jay Reise, Mark Kopytman, Lukas Foss and Oliver Knussen. He is associate professor of composition at the University of Oregon (on faculty since 1997). Crumb has received numerous awards.[3] Selected works- Kinetikus for large percussion ensemble (2009)
