Any Charles Ives would do me good right now, especially his orchestral work (Three Places, Holidays, Central Park, etc. We need a little more America representing on IMSLP! It would be great to see Ruth Crawford Seeger's Quartet up too. And more Berg, even if he isn't American.

Surely we should be requesting Ives and Seeger because they are good composers and not because they are American? I don't believe we need Australian composers just to have Australian composers, I do believe in having all composers and certainly the great ones.

Guess I was supposed to have explicitly stated that they are fantastic composers who happen to be American...Obviously my foremost interest is in their dots and not their nationalities; I was only making an observation.

I was just stating my opinion. But yes I agree with you.
