Comments and Reviews

xiphophilos ● 23rd Jan 2023		Composer Thurlow Lieurance (1878 - 1963), professor of music and later Dean of Fine Arts at the University of Wichita in Kansas, was a member of the Indianist movement in American classical music that flourished from the 1880s through the 1920s. Its adherents tried to create a new, truly American national music by incorporating Native American musical ideas into Western classical music. For an untrained ear like mine, both songs basically sound like orchestral pieces in the European tradition with violins and cellos, except that there is a flute solo that sounds vaguely "Indian," and the singer is then-famous Mohawk baritone Os-Ke-Non-Ton, born c. 1888 in Caughnawaga [now Kahnawá:ke], QC, Canada. Os-Ke-Non-Ton trained as an opera singer in New York City where he befriended Enrico Caruso. He died around 1955 in Lily Dale, NY.
