Composition students bring to their studies their pop-culture tastes and their love of computer technology, making these plugged-in composers-in-waiting a sizable part of the next generation of music makers. Brad Garton, director of Columbia University’s Computer Music Center, and Donnacha Dennehy, music-technology professor at Trinity College Dublin, discuss how technology has changed the sound of composition and music education. Also weighing in on the topic is Frank Oteri, editor and publisher of the American Music Center's NewMusicBox.org.
