Diaphonic Suite

Crawford, R

Ruth Crawford presents the Diaphonic Suite for solo flute (or oboe). In four movements - Scherzando, Andante, Allegro, and Moderato ritmico.

'Ruth Crawford began her composing career as a teenager and eventually became the first woman to win a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1930, the year that saw the composition of her four Diaphonic Suites. Two years later, Crawford married her teacher Charles Seeger and took a twenty year hiatus from composing, choosing instead to focus on the study of American folk music. She returned to composing in 1952, but her career was cut short by cancer. Despite the brevity of her career, Crawford Seeger remains an important figure in American music known for her 'ultra-modern' style.'
