Essential Britten: A Pocket Guide for the Britten Centenary - Tapa blanda
Críticas:
Get ahead [of the Britten centenary] with this smartly organised and attractively written guide. Eschewing a full-dress life, Bridcut expertly spans a wide gamut of genres... to capture every side of the life and work. Playful, eclectic, virtuosic, this browsable delight is like some scholarly equivalent of Britten's early showpiece, 'Variations on a Theme of Frank Bridge' --Independent, 27 October 2012
'This invaluable book includes 180 pages of programme notes about his music, many pages on his life, his pets, cars and illnesses, lists of his music and record library, his views on other people's music and their views on him, plus assessments of him as a pianist, conductor and instrumentalist...this paperback is essential for anybody interested in the composer, and deserves a place in many a Christmas stocking.' --Liverpool Daily Post

Benjamin Britten was one of the greatest composers of the twentieth century. He wrote a feast of music from an early age, first achieving international fame in 1945 with his opera Peter Grimes; now more operas by Britten are performed worldwide than by any other composer born in the twentieth century. In this incisive guide, John Bridcut discusses Britten's music and explores his musical influences, his complex personality, his emotional and professional relationships, and the fascinating nooks and crannies of his daily life, normally overlooked. An indispensable source of fresh insights into this towering figure in British music, this is an updated edition of the Faber Pocket Guide to Britten, including the full text of Britten's speech On Receiving the First Aspen Award.
