I've listed some 20th-century composers whose vital stats are not known to me at this time. Please feel free to edit this page and update it with any new information you might have (though please limit it to birth/death info and nationality). Many of these composers do not yet have articles associated with them, so if you're in the mood to start some composer stubs, go right ahead! --Middlepedal 16:33, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
