Sommario/riassunto |
|
Contemporaries at the Royal College of Music, Elisabeth Lutyens (1906-1983), Elizabeth Maconchy (1907-1994) and Grace Williams (1906-1977) were important figures in twentieth-century British music. Combining musical analysis with contextual material drawn from documents and interviews, Rhiannon Mathias re-evaluates the composers' positions in British music history. |
