Piano Concerto (Cowell)
Henry Cowell wrote his Piano Concerto (formally Concerto for Piano and Orchestra) in 1928. The piece contains many innovative uses of dissonance, cluster chords and extended uses of form.[1] HistoryCowell completed his Piano Concerto in 1928, and premiered the first movement as soloist with the Conductorless Orchestra of New York City in April 1930; he was also the soloist in the first complete performance on December 28, 1930, with the Havana Philharmonic conducted by Pedro Sanjuan. It was only until 1978, long after the composer's death, that its first full performance was done in the United States.[2] MovementsThe concerto is in three movements. I. PolyharmonyThe first movement, Polyharmony, begins with an orchestral tutti. II. Tone ClusterIII. Counter RhythmInstrumentation
