William Grant Still needs a composer entry

There needs to be a landing page for William Grant Still.
I assume his music isn't public domain in the US, but
there needs to be a placeholder for that day.
Also, anyone with a score for his
Afro-American Symphony?

No, we do not need to create a placeholder page for someone whose works are not in the public domain anywhere in the world. Additionally, you are strictly prohibited from using this forum to request copies of copyrighted music.

The symphony will be public domain in the US only in 6 years (having been published in 1935.) If other works of his were published in the US in 1929 or earlier and are digitized and ready for upload, or if arrangements by him or works by others he edited (that are public domain somewhere), likewise, etc- or even if he's the dedicatee of works that are ready for upload- then that's the time to create a page for him.
