Aside, thank goodness, from the existence of cc0 works, copyright has created the worst kind of time machine where any kind of good (or bad) art is delayed 95 years into the future. In this artificial reality, Elisabeth Jacquet published her first book of harpsichord suites in 1782. Bach penned the Art of Fugue in 1845 and Beethoven the Grosse Fuge in 1921. Amy Cheney will be alive for 17 more years and her E minor symphony is relatively hot off the presses having premiered in October 1991.
