Jirįk, a Czech composer, was actively involved in the International Society for Contemporary Music in the 1920s and 30s. "Although [a] late Romantic disposition dominated his music's character, his thorough knowledge of prevailing trends in new music enabled him to modify his technique which though not precisely ground-breaking or pioneering, rationally constructivist or highlighting a single approach remained neither eclectic nor conservative." Milan Kuna in Grove Music Online. De Greiff (1903-1995) was highly instrumental in the promotion of contemporary music in South America. Seller Inventory # 21096
