Very little is known about Percy Goetschius, but his list of students was a true Who's Who of composers and composers whose lives spanned into the early 21st Century. Outside of Nadia Boulanger, it's doubtful that any other single music teacher has had such a profound impact on his students as Percy Goetschius did.
What we know of Dr. Goetschius we found on line through the Passaic County Historical Society, Lambert Castle, in Paterson, NJ.
Here's a partial list of Dr. Goetschius' students and their online biographies:
