I have no idea where "neo-romantic" came from. For one, his stuff doesn't sound neo-romantic to me. For another thing, it's totally un-sourced. I'm going to remove it until an adequate citation of it can be found. --Chopin-Ate-Liszt! 02:27, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I can see where the term came from, though it's unfounded. He writes in a period close to the neo-classics, but his style isn't going back to classicism as much as it is romanticism. Just a thought. --131.230.53.248 02:59, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Text describing Chance's death, which was just blanked without comment from this article by Wikipedia user: Eric (contributions):

On August 16, 1972 Chance died while working in the backyard of his home in Lexington, Kentucky.[1] While airing a tent in his garden, a metal pole contacted an electrified fence used to confine his dogs, and he was accidentally electrocuted. He died at 12:40 p.m. at Central Baptist Hospital from cardiac arrest. Chance and his wife Linda had two children. In May 1973, the auditorium at Grimsley (formerly Greensboro) Senior High School in Greensboro—where Chance had served as composer-in-residence from 1960 to 1962—was named in his honor.
