An important new reference source for students of western musical
culture, this volume directs the user to all pertinent,
substantive, and accessible information concerning the life and
works of Sir Michael Tippett, widely recognized as one of this
century's most significant composers. The book is divided into four
main sections: a biography, an annotated list of works and
performances, a discography, and an extensive bibliography. Five
appendices provide additional information for the researcher
including a chronological list of compositions, a classified list
of published compositions, honors and awards won by the composer,
ballet and television productions, and resources available. The
brief biography which begins the volume provides a convenient
source for basic factual information about Tippett's life. The
works and performances section presents in one alphabetical
sequence all known musical works by Tippett, including early
unpublished compositions. Each citation includes information about
year of composition, duration, genre, instrumentation, additional
statements of responsibility, commissions and dedications, location
of existing manuscripts, published editions, and a selected list of
performances. The discography contains all known commercial
recordings of Tippett's music along with information about
performers, date and place of recording, and a chronological
listing of all issues of the performance. Divided into three
sections, the bibliography covers writings by Tippett, books and
articles about Tippett, and reviews of his works culled from the
Times (London), the New York Times, and a variety of major and
local newspapers around the world. Taken as a whole, this is
amasterful contribution to the reference works available on the
great composers of the twentieth century.
