Full biography Henry Cowell

Henry Cowell (1897-1965) was an American composer, pianist, teacher, writer, and music publisher. He was born in Menlo Park, California, and showed an early interest in music by teaching himself to play the violin and piano. Throughout his career, he was known for his experimental approach to music, often incorporating new techniques and sounds in his compositions.

Cowell was a prolific composer, writing over 1,000 works in his lifetime. He was particularly interested in exploring the potential of non-traditional sound sources, such as tone clusters, which involve playing multiple adjacent notes on the piano simultaneously. He was the first composer to use these clusters extensively in his music, and they became one of his signature techniques. He also experimented with new tuning systems and wrote music for many unusual instruments, including the theremin and the Ondes Martenot.

In addition to his work as a composer, Cowell was an influential teacher and musicologist. He established the New Music Quarterly Review and the New Music Recordings in the 1920s to promote contemporary music and composers. He taught at a number of institutions throughout his career, including the New School for Social Research and Columbia University. Many of his students went on to become successful composers in their own right, including George Gershwin and John Cage.

Despite his many achievements, Cowell faced controversy throughout his career due to his political views and personal life. He was imprisoned for several years in the 1930s after being convicted of a morals charge related to his homosexual relationship with a young man. This experience had a profound effect on Cowell and influenced much of his work in later years.

Today, Cowell is remembered as one of the most influential American composers of the early 20th century. His innovative approach to music and willingness to experiment with new techniques and sounds helped push the boundaries of contemporary classical music and paved the way for future generations of composers.
