description: "Earle Brown was an American music composer, producer, and educator who, as a composer, was a close associate of John Cage, and established his own formal and notational systems. As such, he created \"open form,\" a style of musical construction that influenced composers like John Zorn and the downtown New York scene of the 1980s, as well as later generations of composers."
