Alec Wilder (1907-1980) was essentially self-taught as a composer, his formal education in music confined to two years of counterpoint at the Eastman School of Music.He wrote in every form of music.    Gunther Schuller sums up: 'What so many of us respect in Alec Wilder was his absolute independence as an artist...It was almost a mission in Alec's life to assuage the thirst for good music of the so-called underdog instruments...'
