Introducing:
Van Slyck 20th Century Music

 Although much of Van Slyck's music was published by E. C. Schirmer, Willis, Southern, and General Music Publishing companies during his lifetime, when he passed away in 1983, he left behind many works that were never published. Now using Sibelius©, the same software used by the world’s largest sheet music publishers, these works are being published by Van Slyck 20th Century Music, and are available for purchase on this website in the form of printed sheet music or as PDF files.

In addition to these newly published works, original LP's featuring Van Slyck's performances and compositions are also available on this site. (See LP's and CDs for sale.)

It is one of the goals of this website to serve as a resource for researchers of music of the 20th century in general, or Nicholas Van Slyck in particular. All of his published music is listed here, as well as a full biography, and links to related websites. In the spirit of keeping great music alive, welcome to the site.

You can now purchase the latest CD of Nicholas Van Slyck's music on CDBaby. The Van Slyck CD "Pantomime" can also be ordered through CDBaby.
