Arthur Russell was a classical cellist that played in the 70's disco scene, who wasn't recognized for his avante-pop, minimal music while he was alive. During his short life, he collaborated with musicians such as Phillip Glass, David Bryne, and Nicky Siano. He also worked with choreographers such as Diane Madden, Alison Salzinger, and John Berned. Fun fact: He briefly dated Allen Ginsberg:)
