    A composer of both concert and film music, Irwin Bazelon (1922-1995) created works that are rhythmically complex and driving, often influenced by jazz and featuring brass and percussion.
    Born in Evanston, Illinois, Bazelon began his education at DePaul University in Chicago. He then studied composition with Paul Hindemith at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut for a short time, after which he went to Mills College in Oakland, California to work with Darius Milhaud.
