[edit]

Created by TonyTheTiger (talk). Self-nominated at 03:53, 20 April 2016 (UTC).

  • At 1,652 characters, the article meets the length requirements. The hook fact is verified by https://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/19/arts/music/henry-threadgill-pulitzer-prize-penny-pound.html, which says:

    If you do call him a jazz composer, he is the third to be awarded a Pulitzer in the history of the awards; Wynton Marsalis was awarded for his oratorio “Blood on the Fields” in 1997 and Ornette Coleman was awarded for his album “Sound Grammar” in 2007.

    The article was created 20 April 2016‎ and contains no close paraphrasing. Good work!
