Leroy Robertson, Music Giant from the Rockies

Leroy Robertson is ranked among the foremost American composers of the twentieth century, with works such as his "String Quintet," "Trilogy," and "Passacaglia" having skyrocketed him to international fame. Alone with his composing, he loved to teach, and generations of students, inspired by his uncompromising ideals, have, in turn, gone forth to teach, perform, and compose.
