STRICKLAND, LILY (1887 - 1958) Trained at the Institute of Musical Art in New York, the American composer Lily Strickland spent the years from 1920 to 1929 in India, where she was able to study the music of the country. In America she was interested in black and Amerindian music and this is demonstrated in a number of her compositions, some influenced by Farwell and Cadman. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Lily+Strickland">Read more on Last.fm</a>
