JOHN B. KENNEDY (Born 1934): Symphony No. 1 in Two Movements (1964).

Among his works are included a Lyric Ode for Strings, a Symphonic Fantasy for Orchestra, this S
ymphony in Two Movements, various orchestral songs, a Choreographic Dance work and works for solo voice and orchestra.
The San Francisco Symphony Orchestra conducted by Josef Krips performed this energetic premiere of the Symphony No. 1 on January 7, 1966. I believe his symphony suggests that Kennedy's works deserve a new look and listen.
