Obituary: Composer and Music Scholar Gardner Read, 92
It is with deep regret that I must announce that composer and music scholar Gardner Read died on November 10, 2005, at his home in Manchester-by-the-Sea, MA. He was 92. I studied with Gardner 1969-1975. He was a consummate symphonist with many books on orchestration, notation, and contemporary styles. A full obituary can be found at NewMusicBox:
