About
Henry Kimball Hadley (1871-1937) was one of the leading American composers of the inter-war years and before. He developed his art from music founded in that of the German late romantic composers, but he subsequently searched for the roots of a distinctive American style, his musical car-ride Scherzo Diabolique being the Short Ride in a Fast Machine of its time. This Dutton Epoch survey presents six varied scores – all splendid discoveries – from across Hadley’s career in mostly world premiere recordings.
