Synopsis

The pieces in this anthology capture the characteristic simplicity and sincerity of all of Whitlock's music. His rare facility as an organist shines through in his ingenious use of the instrument's resources and his instinctive feeling for colour and sound. Whitlock's style is personal and intimate and the pieces charming and melodious.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Percy Whitlock was born in Chatham, Kent, and studied composition at the Royal College of Music with Stanford and Vaughan Williams, and organ with Henry Ley. He later worked as an organist in Kent and in Bournemouth, and composed much of his orchestral output for the Bournemouth Municipal Orchestra.
Whitlock's reputation was not only as an outstanding organist-composer, but also as a broadcaster for the BBC, teacher and journalist, writing for the Musical Times, The Organ, and Musical Opinion.
