David Stock

David Frederick Stock (June 3, 1939 – November 2, 2015) was an American composer and conductor.

Stock was a longtime resident of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he served as a professor of composition and as the conductor of the Contemporary Ensemble at Duquesne University.

In 1976, he founded the Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble, and was the music director for 23 years until his retirement in 1999.[1]

gollark: Based on advanced "ctrl+F" technology, there's nothing specifically about drugs or whatever (would be weird if there was) but just "no doing illegal things". *Talking* about drugs is not illegal.
gollark: There's a specific no-explosives rule, there isn't a specific no-talking-about-drugs one (though I Imagine Discord TOS would forbid some related stuff).
gollark: The barriers to having an alternative are probably more financial and legal than technical, inasmuch as video hosting is mostly a solved technical issue by now but actually getting advertisers and such isn't.
gollark: Squirrels can bark?!
gollark: Nitrates and phosphates and stuff? Regular plants need those.
