He wrote two operas, Four Saints in Three Acts (1928) and The Mother of Us All (1947), for librettos by Gertrude Stein; music for films including The River (1937) and Louisiana Story (1948); the ballet Filling Station (1937); an opera, Lord Byron (1972); and numerous works for organ, piano, and chamber ensembles.

    Extractions: Bibliography Writers, musicians, painters, the rich, the famous, adventurers, misfits, expatriate Americans, and the literary cognoscenti from the European capitals, all flocked to Paris between the two World Wars. Paris and the arrondissements of the Left Bank (Rive Gauche) became the unchallenged center of European arts and culture: classical music flourished; new ballet leapt from the theatres; jazz rhythms blared in the clubs; new painting abstracted (Cubism) and enriched the poetry and writing of Dadaism and Surrealism. Paris, like the river Seine, was a swirl of cultural currents. Why did Paris become such an incomparable center of the arts and jazz, rather than London or New York or Zurich after World War I? One explanation of the lure of Paris is that given in his memoir (1966) by Virgil Thomson, the American composer, a Kansas City native but a Parisian at heart: In later years I used to say that I lived in Paris because it reminded me of Kansas City. And Paris can present to anyone, of course, since it contains all possible elements, an image of his origins. In my case, I now learned, not only was Paris to be my new home town, but all France, so little did I feel alien there, was to be like another Missouri a cosmopolitan crossroads, frank and friendly and actually not far from the same geographic size. Gertrude Stein, the American writer and cultural mentor, also saw this as one of the many things that "made Paris and France the natural background of the art and literature of the twentieth century":
