Milhaud, Darius. (1892–1974) [Diamond, David. (1915–2005)]. Le Retour de l'Enfant Prodigue - Signed LP TO DAVID DIAMOND.
Signed record of the important French avant-garde composer's cantata Le Retour de l'Enfant prodigue, inscribed to the American composer David Diamond on the back of the sleeve: "Pour mon cher David – son ami Milhaud." The cantata, composed in 1917 with a text by André Gide, is here performed by Bernard Demigny, Janine Collard, Gabriel Bacquier, André Vessières and Michel Caron. Released on VEGA, C30 A 24 (1960). Slight smudging to the inscription; circular mark to the verso of the sleeve; otherwise fine. 12 x 12 inches (20.8 x 30.8 cm).

From the collection of David Diamond, considered one of the preeminent American composers of his generation. He enjoyed wide success in the 1940's and 1950's, before the serial and modernist trends largely pushed him into the shadows. The New York Times described him as "part of what some considered a forgotten generation of great American symphonists, including Howard Hanson, Roy Harris, William Schuman, Walter Piston and Peter Mennin." Among his many close friends in the world of music were Aaron Copland and Leonard Bernstein.
