Henry Cowell (1897-1965): Symphony No. 8 for Chorus and Orchestra (1952)
Thor Johnson conducting the All-Ohio Folk Orchestra and Chorus
American composer Henry Cowell's unpublished and "elusive" Symphony No. 8 was performed only once, and that occurred in 1952 at a state-wide high school orchestral festival conducted by the then Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra director Thor Johnson. The performance took place at Wilmington (Ohio) college.* The performance was issued on a Wilmington Guild LP a year later. I can find no notes on the symphony itself, but should anyone have information about this symphony I will most happily incorporate the information here.
*It might be interesting to note that Henry Cowell, though never moving beyond third grade in formal education, was a self-taught genius who was awarded several honorary doctorate degrees over his career, even one posthumously in 1967 from said Wilmington College.
