While surfing Youtube for UC's, I came across a reference to Scheve, German born American composer. Came to this country and was Professor of Music at Grinnell Collge in Grinnell, Iowa. His most major work appears to have been a large oratorio "The Death and Resurrection of Christ" published in 1908. There is a video of the final 11 minute of this lovely work in Russia several years ago and can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0or0mEV6PdU.
Apparently he wrote a symphony, 2 concertos and other works.
I suspect that the entire Moscow performance must have been taped but can find no trace, at least on youtube.
Can anyone shed some light on this composer/work?
