La Monte Thornton Young is an American avantgarde composer, musician, and artist generally recognized as the first minimalist composer. His works are cited as notable examples of postwar experimental and contemporary music, and were tied to early Fluxus and performance art aesthetics. Young is best known for his pioneering work in Western drone music, prominently explored in the 1960s with his New Yorkbased experimental music collective, the Theatre of Eternal Music.
