Question

This video, http://youtu.be/YjCmBSXtzqA, is a performance of Henry Cowell's The Banshee by Sarah Cahill at Le Poisson Rouge in New York City, March 10, 2012. The work was written in 1925 and can be found as NAWM 193. Describe in your discussion post how you think this piece would have been received by the audience in 1925, and how it would be received in New York City or elsewhere in the country today.
