His khaki pants remain wrinkle free, despite Clarence having been on the road for the past three weeks. His grey button down shirt is tucked into the pants, and his navy…

Composers are no longer only middle aged, white men who play violin, piano and write music by hand. In today’s time, composers are producers who create music through their computer such as Pharrell Williams and Erick Arc Elliot of the Flatbush Zombies.
