This audio recording from the NYC Municipal Archives, WNYC Collection features the Composer's Laboratory Forum, a series of programs that began in New York City by the Federal Music Project's Music Education Department. The forums sought to introduce the public to American composers with weekly concerts and audience-involved discussions. This particular recording features Hunter Johnson's "The Valley of the Muted Songbird" and "Scherzo from the South," performed by pianist Richard Singer; "Cradle Song in a Modern Mining Town" with music by Goddard Lieberson and words by Mildred Waterman, performed by soprano Louise Taylor with piano accompaniment; and "Hotel Music" by Paul Frederic Bowles, performed by the Modern Art Trio.
