Alexander ('Sandy') Goehr is a leading British composer and teacher. Born into a Jewish musical family in Berlin in 1932, he arrived in England in 1933 with his father, Walter, a composer, conductor, and pupil of Arnold Schoenberg; and his mother Laelia, a trained pianist from Kyiv. Raised in Amersham, he attended Richard Hall's classes at the Royal Manchester College of Music. There he formed the 'Manchester School' – a group of young composers and performers including Peter Maxwell Davies, Harrison Birtwistle, and John Ogdon. He was introduced to Olivier Messiaen when his father conducted the first British performance of Turangalîla-Symphonie in 1953, and he later studied with Messiaen and Yvonne Loriod in Paris. In the late 1950s and early '60s Goehr became known as a radical exponent of serial music. Since then, he has composed more than one hundred major works, including operas, orchestral and chamber pieces, and music for film, television, dance and theatre. He is Emeritus Professor of Music at Cambridge University and one of Europe's most important music educators. He has written and lectured extensively and his music is performed all over the world. Jack Van Zandt (b. 1954), an American composer and Goehr's former pupil and assistant, has co-written this first comprehensive account of the life, creative foundations, and teachings of this great composer.

Finding the Key deals with the fundamental issues that face the composer today. In the remarkable 'Letter to Boulez' that opens this collection of essays, Alexander Goehr assesses his own progress away from the avant-garde of the l950s, while his account of the 'Manchester School', of which he, along with Maxwell Davies and Harrison Birtwistle, was one of the leading lights, reveals what it was like to grow up musically in a world where modernism was considered almost as a vice. Messiaen's composition classes are described with loving detail; but Schoenberg and Stravinsky were, and remain, at the heart of Goehr's musical concerns. Few books have revealed with such thoughtful honesty how complex the role of the composer is in contemporary society.
