Autographed 3” x 5” bust portrait photograph of the late American composer at the piano. Diamond, a pupil of Nadia Boulanger, Bernard Rogers and Roger Sessions was one of the most productive American composers of the 20th Century. His bulk of work included 11 symphonies completed between 1940 and 1991, a ballet, 3 violin concertos, 11 string quartets and many other works in various forms. Diamond was able to maintain financial security throughout his life based upon his grants and awards, including 3 Guggenheim Fellowships, The Juilliard Publication Award, The American Academy in Rome Award, the Paderewski Prize, New York Music Critic Circle Award and others. His works, quite original were idiomatic and steeped in folk-like patterns. He was championed by the conductors Pierre Monteux, Serge Koussevitsky, Dimitri Mitropoulos and composer-conductor Howard Hanson. A rare autograph! |
