Claude Debussy
Claude Debussy was born into a poor family in France on August 26, 1862, but his obvious
gift at the piano sent him to the Paris Conservatory at age 11. At age 22, he won the Prix de
Rome with his composition L’ Enfant Prodigue (The Prodigal Son), which financed two years
of further musical study in the Italian capital. After the turn of the century, Debussy
established himself as the leading figure of French music. During World War I, while Paris
was being bombed by the German air force, he succumbed to colon cancer at the age of 55.
He is known as the “Father of the Modern School of Composition”.
Famous Compositions:
Igor Stravinsky
Igor Stravinsky was born on June 17, 1882, in Oranienbaum (now Lomonosov), Russia. He rose
to fame in the early 1900s for his compositions for the Ballets Russes, including the
controversial The Rite of Spring. Stravinsky brought his family to Switzerland and then France,
continuing his output with such works as Renard and Persephone. After moving to the United
States in 1939, he completed his famed Symphony in C and became an American citizen.
Stravinsky died in New York City on April 6, 1971, with approximately 127 works to his name.

John Cage
One of the 20th century composers with the widest array of sounds in his works. He
was born in Los Angeles, California, USA on September 5, 1912 and became one of
the most original composers in the history of western music. He challenged the very
idea of music by manipulating musical instruments in order to achieve new sounds.
He experimented with what came to be known as “chance music.” He was known
for his irrational ideas. More than any other modern composer, Cage influenced the
development of modern music since the 1950s. He was considered more of a
musical philosopher than a composer. He had a total of around 229 musical
compositions He died in New York City on August 12, 1992.
