There is anecdote about this piece; one of the ladies at an early performances said "they say things are very bad in Europe now." Actually, I love Krenek and corresponded with Gladys. I almost crossed paths with K when I was at UCSD, shoot - I knew nothing.

it's nice to find out that K is somewhat of an American national treasure; he defies categorization. the Viennese influence is present, but it barely touches the overall polystyle arrangement. i'm sure that his breaks with teachers were the result of him not wanting to get lumped into this school or that. his is a unique voice. quite frankly I hear the American's as much or more than I hear Schoenberg, Berg, and Webern. I hear the open spaces of Harris and Copland. I hear the intricate polyphony of Carter which almost verges on randomness, i hear the percussive leanings of Prokofiev, and even the bathos of Shostakovich. he does what he wants, he does it well, and it is beautiful music.

I can hear many influences but only from Europe. Isn't it the european influence on the US that characterizes diverse figures as Carter or Copland?
