Sir Lennox Berkeley (1903-1989) was demonstrably at the centre of British musical activity for much of his almost sixty years of creative life. He was one of the most distinguished of Nadia Boulanger’s pupils and, as professor at the Royal Academy of Music in London, teacher of some of the leading composers of the next generation, including David Bedford, Richard Rodney Bennet, William Matthias, Nicholas Maw and John Tavener. Berkeley was a collaborator and friend of Benjamin Britten, and, of course, father to Michael. Among his four completed operas and symphonies, several large-scale concertos, three string quartets and liturgical music that has become part of the choral tradition, his impressive output of works for the solo piano might easily be overlooked. But that would be to neglect possibly the finest individual body of twentieth century piano music produced in this country with works such as the Sonata and the Six Preludes, both completed in 1945, of acknowledged stature. For this centenary publication, Professor Peter Dickinson, who knew Berkeley and his work for many years, has brought together for the first time the complete solo piano output, including hitherto unpublished pieces. He has examined sources and corrected previously published versions as well as completing the set of 'Three Dances' which the composer left only partly arranged for piano from his unknown ballet score of 1932. Pianists at last have the opportunity for an overview of truly outstanding contribution to piano literature. Includes detailed editorial notes.

"A substantial introduction from Dickinson, who first met Berkeley in 1956, is followed by Berkeley's reports on musical life in Paris (1929-34) and a selection of his letters to his celebrated teacher Nadia Boulsnger (in translation). Almost all of Berkely's later writings follow, and then there are four interviews he gave in the 1970s. After Berkeley's death, Dickinson interviewed performers, composers, family and friends for a BBC Radio 3 documentary, and the complete recorded discussions are transcribed"--Publisher's description.

Fully revised edition of Peter Dickinson's acclaimed study of one of the great British composers of the twentieth century. Sir Lennox Berkeley (1903-1989) was one of the leading British composers of the mid-twentieth century and his music has unique qualities which will ensure its survival far beyond transient fashions. Peter Dickinson knew Berkeley for more than thirty years and this much enlarged book places the composer in the context of his extended study with Nadia Boulanger, his friendship with Britten, and the achievement of an independent voice of remarkable distinction. The new book now benefits from interviews with Lady Berkeley, Michael Berkeley, Julian Bream, Colin Horsley, Sir John Manduell, Nicholas Maw, Malcolm Williamson and the late Basil Douglas, Desmond Shawe-Taylor and Norman del Mar. There are photographs, a full list of works, bibliographies and over a hundred musical examples. PETER DICKINSON is Head of Music at the Institute of United States Studies at the University of London and an Emeritus Professor of the Universities of Keele and London.

This book is the first full-length treatment of Walter Hussey's work as a patron between 1943 and 1978, first for the Anglican parish church of St Matthew in Northampton, and then at Chichester Cathedral. He was responsible for the most significant sequence of works of art commissioned for the British churches in the twentieth century. They included music by Benjamin Britten, Leonard Bernstein and William Walton, visual art by Henry Moore, Graham Sutherland and Marc Chagall, and poetry by W. H. Auden. Placing Hussey in theological context and in a period of rapid cultural change, it explores the making and reception of the commissions, and the longer-term influence of his work, still felt today. As well as contributing to the religious and cultural history of Britain, and of Anglo-Catholicism and the cathedrals in particular, the book will be of interest to all those concerned with the relationship between theology and the arts, and to historians of music and the visual arts.
