In that timeframe we did not even have an electronic keyboard. Always interested in sound, and the depth of sound waves.... Colombia-Princeton had a computer that filled 4 walls, and could simulate any sound. Fascinating! I particularly love what David Arkenstone has done with music.... others....

Those are the good editions of Piston, before he went loopy. I too have a Piston Harmony of this vintage, along with his excellent Counterpoint. I still use both for teaching (private rudiments, theory, harmony, counterpoint, ear-training). It would be nice if modern music-store-bought equipment was more geared to composers, like the stuff we had access to in university. So much of the new stuff is just disposable techno-junk.
