Happy birthday to Amy Beach, born on September 5, 1867.

A brilliant pianist and pioneering composer, Beach became the first American woman to achieve widespread recognition for large-scale orchestral music. Her landmark Gaelic Symphony, premiered by the Boston Symphony Orchestra in 1896, broke barriers and secured her place in music history.

Today we celebrate an artist whose courage, imagination, and unmistakably Romantic voice continue to inspire new generations.

Carole King began piano and singing the same way many of us have.

“I had begun making up songs when I was three. Perched precariously on Brooklyn and Manhattan telephone books atop the piano bench, I improvised words and melodies at the top of my lungs while my little fingers pounded out a rudimentary accompaniment on the piano. Using the most advanced form of recording then available in our household, my mother transcribed onto music paper a song I wrote called "Galloping".
