| Composer, born in Marion, Massachusetts, USA. He was the founder of the Winona Symphony Orchestra, MA (1912), and taught composition at Miami University (1938–43). His radical modernity and individuality met largely with incomprehension, and in later years he concentrated on painting. He destroyed many of his early works, but the best-known and longest of those which survive is the 17-minute orchestral Sun-treader (1926–31). |
