[American Avant-garde] Nancarrow, Conlon. (1912 - 1997). Signed FDC Postal Cover. Bold signature on a 1979 first day commemorative postal cover honoring American music. In very fine condition, a rare signature from the U.S.-born composer who lived and worked in Mexico, spending most of his life in relative isolation. Signed Nancarrow material of any kind is very uncommon.
Nancarrow is best remembered for the pieces he wrote for the player piano. He was one of the first composers to use musical instruments as mechanical machines, making them play far beyond human performance ability.
