David Lang (born January 8, 1957 in Los Angeles, California) is an American composer. Together with Julia Wolfe and Michael Gordon, Lang co-founded Bang on a Can in 1987. His first recognition came from the BMI Foundation's Student Composer Awards in 1980 and 1981. He can be seen as a composer who challenges the status quo. He sometimes gives his concert pieces strange, and even iconoclastic titles such as "Eating Living Monkeys" (1985) and "Bonehead" (1990). Wikipedia
