Dalit Hadass Warshaw (born August 6, 1974) is a New York-based composer, pianist, thereminist.
 Previously on the composition and music theory faculty of Boston Conservatory, she currently serves on the composition faculty at CUNY-Brooklyn College.
 Her works have been performed by dozens of orchestral ensembles, including the New York Philharmonic and Israel Philharmonic Orchestras (Zubin Mehta conducting), the Boston Symphony, the Cleveland Orchestra, the Houston Symphony, the Y Chamber Orchestra, the Colorado Symphony and the Albany Symphony Orchestra.
 In April 2006, her piece "After the Victory" for orchestra and chorus, was premiered by the Grand Rapids Symphony and the North American Choral Company.
 Her first recording, entitled "Invocations" was released by Albany Records in 2011.
 Her first piano concerto, "Conjuring Tristan," was commissioned by the Grand Rapids Symphony in 2014.
 The work was inspired by Richard Wagner's "Tristan und Isolde," as well as by Thomas Mann's novella "Tristan."
 The piece received its world premiere in January 2015, with Warshaw as the soloist.
Anton Bruckner’s Symphony No. 2 in C minor, sometimes known as the “Symphony of Pauses,” was completed in 1872, premiered in Vienna the following year with Bruckner himself on the podium, and given a substantial revision in 1877.
 (The "Internationale Bruckner-Gesellschaft" thus recognizes two versions.)
 The work was also adjusted by the composer right before its premiere as well as in 1876 and 1892.
 The composition date of 1872 places this music after the Symphony "No. 0" in D minor, which was itself composed "after" the Symphony No. 1 in C minor.
 The Second is the only numbered Bruckner symphony without a dedication; Franz Liszt tacitly rejected the dedication, and Richard Wagner chose the Symphony No. 3 in D minor when offered both works.
Wilson Sawyer (1917–1979) was an American composer, arranger and musician.
 Born in Traverse City, Michigan, he showed musical talent at an early age and studied music at the University of Michigan.
 Sawyer conducted the University's Women's Glee Club and led the Bill Sawyer Orchestra, a big band that was featured on WMAQ's "Fitch Summer Bandwagon" on July 7, 1940.
 He composed several arrangements of choral works; popular songs for Perry Como, Fred Waring and Ray Eberle; music for the "Alaskan Stampede," a Leo Seltzer produced "musical extravaganza on ice" c. 1944, and an opera based on Mark Twain's Tom Sawyer.
 He is best known for composing Symphony No. 1, known as the Alaskan Symphony, at Gypsy Trail, Carmel, New York in 1945.
 The work includes text from the "Spell of the Yukon" by Robert W. Service sung by a baritone soloist in the third movement, as well as other thematic inspirations drawn from his study of the climate, topography and history of the then-territory.
 The Alaskan Symphony was first performed in December 1945 by the American Symphony Orchestra and was broadcast across the United States and to overseas armed services at that time.
 Wilson Sawyer conducted the piece and Gov. Ernest Gruening of Alaska was guest speaker on the program.
 At Gruening's request, the original score was placed in the Alaskan Museum of Natural History [Alaska Historical Library and Museum] in Juneau, Alaska.
 In 1960, Sawyer's wife Maxine was diagnosed with spinal cancer and they moved to Pawling, New York where he operated a chicken farm and laundromat.
 He continued to compose.
 The Alaskan Symphony was performed by the Hudson Valley Philharmonic in 1975 with Sawyer again conducting even though he had recently suffered a stroke.
 Sawyer revised the Symphony in 1977, making substantial cuts to the fourth movement among other edits.
 The revised Alaskan Symphony was premiered by the Juneau Symphony on June 14, 2008, conducted by music director Kyle Wiley Pickett.
The Symphony No. 9 in E minor was the last symphony written by the British composer Ralph Vaughan Williams.
 He composed it from 1956 to 1957 and it was given its premiere performance in London by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Malcolm Sargent on 2 April 1958, in the composer's eighty-sixth year.
 It was subsequently performed on 5 August 1958 by the BBC Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Malcolm Sargent at a Promenade Concert.
 Vaughan Williams died three weeks later, on 26 August, the very day on which the symphony was due to be recorded for the first time, by the London Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Sir Adrian Boult.
 The composer had planned to attend the recording sessions.
