Jeffrey Harrington
This week we present you Jeff Harrington, who has a very exciting philosophy about music distribution. But first listen to this blasting piece for string quartett:

He is likely the first composer to utilize the internet to further his career, and probably invented the free music distribution model. By employing pre-web computer systems he distributed his music (both scores and all recordings) to musicians and listeners around the world free of charge and continues to do so to this day at his site: www.jeffharrington.org
