Edward Swan Hennessy (24 November 1866 – 26 October 1929) was an Irish-American composer and pianist who lived much of his life in Paris. In his pre-War piano music, he excelled as a miniaturist in descriptive, programmatic music. After joining a group of Breton composers, he developed a reputation as a "Celtic" composer, drawing on his Irish heritage, writing in a style that was unique in a French as well as an Irish context. Even though he has been almost forgotten after 1950, his music was applauded by contemporary French music critics including Henri Collet, Louis Vuillemin, Émile Vuillermoz and Lucien Chevaillier. In some works, he used jazz elements and took inspiration from funfairs and industrial noise, anticipating trends associated with the group of "Les Six".

  • エドワード・スワン・ヘネシー(Edward Swan Hennessy, 1866年11月24日 - 1929年10月26日)は、アイルランド系アメリカ人の作曲家で、生涯の大半をパリで送った。戦前のピアノ曲には非常に描写的な標題音楽の小品作家としての特徴が強くみられる。ブルトン人作曲家グループの一員となってからはケルト系作曲家として名声を広めたが、これはアイルランド系の出自に加え、フランスの観点からもアイルランド・イギリスの観点からも比類のない作風だったためである。1950年以降には後世の記憶にほぼ残らなかったものの、アンリ・コレやルイ・ヴュイユマン、エミル・ヴュイヤモズ、ルシアン・シェヴァイイエールなど当時のフランスの音楽評論家から絶賛された。何曲かの作品にはジャズの要素が使われ、年の市の喧騒、乗り物や工場の騒音などから着想を得たものもある。これらは1920年以降に活躍した作曲家集団「フランス6人組」の傾向を先取りしたものと言える。 (ja)
  • Edward Swan Hennessy (* 24. November 1866 in Rockford, Illinois; † 26. Oktober 1929 in Paris) war ein irisch-amerikanischer Komponist, der den größten Teil seines Lebens in Paris verbrachte. In seiner Vorkriegs-Klaviermusik zeichnete er sich als Miniaturist mit sehr deskriptiver und programmatischer Musik aus. Nachdem er sich einer Gruppe bretonischer Komponisten angeschlossen hatte, entwickelte er einen Ruf als „keltischer“ Komponist, der auf sein irisches Erbe zurückgriff und in einem Stil schrieb, der sowohl in einem französischen als auch in einem irisch-britischen Kontext einzigartig war. Auch wenn er nach 1950 fast vollständig in Vergessenheit geraten ist, wurde seine Musik von französischen Musikkritikern seiner Zeit wie Henri Collet, Louis Vuillemin, Émile Vuillermoz oder Lucien Ch (de)
