Peter Warlock (Philip Heseltine) is one of the most fascinating and
enigmatic of twentieth-century British composers. He was by turns a
sensitive songwriter of remarkable genius, a witty and caustic
critic, a rare scholar of early music, and a friend of some of the
leading figures of the day - including William Walton, Jacob
Epstein, and D. H. Lawrence. This is a complete account of this
mercurial musician. Barry Smith uses new and often controversial
material in telling his real, and frequently outrageous story. Here
is the man, the composer, writer, and scholar, from his dangerous
involvement in the occult to his long-lasting loves and hates - all
of which ended by his own hand in a gas-filled London flat on a
cold winter's morning in 1930.
