Henry Cowell- Overlooked American composer?

Music Lane

It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Going through the bought-but-never-played pile I pulled out the album below
I have just discovered Henry Cowell's String Quartet #4 (United Quartet) performed by the Composers String Quartet. What a marvelous piece of music, the use of oriental elements makes for an unique piece, different from the other American composers of that time.

What other works by Cowell should I investigate?

TIA
