	IHAS: Composer
		ne of the first truly distinctive voices in American music, Charles Tomlinson Griffes was hailed as a major force in American classical music by the likes of Stokowski, Monteux, and Prokofiev at the time of his premature death in 1920.
		As it had for MacDowell and other Americans abroad, the German experience plunged Griffes into the Romantic ethos; it permitted him to become fluent in the language, and to encounter such prominent artists such as Richard Strauss, Ferruccio Busoni, Isadora Duncan, and Enrico Caruso.
		In addition to his legacy of instrumental works, Griffes left a considerable body of song which ranged in style from the early German Romantic settings to those informed by his interest in French Impressionism and Asian art.
