The Diston Fund Recordings Archive
The Ditson Fund at Columbia
University supports performances,
publications, and recordings of
works by younger or relatively
unknown (living) American composers.
Works commissioned by the Fund
represent a microcosm of the history
of classical musical composition
in the United States in the 20th
century. More
