Daniel Pinkham was an American composer, organist and harpsichordist, active in sacred, choral and concert music. He was associated with Boston musical life and with a wide range of twentieth-century repertory.

In the Pristine catalogue he appears in Leonard Bernstein’s 1940s American broadcasts, including music by Copland, Blitzstein, Riegger, Diamond and other American composers.

Pinkham’s presence reflects the lively mid-century American music world in which performers, composers and broadcasters often overlapped.

His page is justified by secure identity and catalogue context. Pinkham gives the American modern-music shelf a crisp New England keyboard-and-composer trace.
