Abstract: Recently, Keating, Linden, and Wells cite{KLW} showed that the density of states measure of a nearest-neighbor quantum spin glass model is approximately Gaussian when the number of particles is large. The density of states measure is the ensemble average of the empirical spectral measure of a random matrix; in this paper, we use concentration of measure and entropy techniques together with the result of cite{KLW} to show that in fact, the empirical spectral measure of such a random matrix is almost surely approximately Gaussian itself, with no ensemble averaging. We also extend this result to a spherical quantum spin glass model and to the more general coupling geometries investigated by ErdH{o}s and Schr"oder.
