Completely revised and updated from recently discovered archive
material, Lewis Foreman's classic biography is the essential
handbook to Bax and his contemporaries. Lewis Foreman's classic
biography of the composer Arnold Bax (1883-1953) was first
published in 1983. Documenting the life and times of a remarkable
figure whose life touched a wide circle in England and Ireland, it
was notable for having many of Bax's friends and contemporaries as
sources, most of whom have since died. It also informed the
remarkable revival of Bax's music and reputation which has taken
place over the last twenty years. Now completely revised in the
light of much new material including the huge archive of the
pianist Harriet Cohen, Bax's mistress, which has only just become
available for research, it is a notable portrait of a unique
musical milieu. Bax's extensive musical output is now
comprehensively recorded and widely known and here all the music is
discussed from first hand acquaintance with all the revivals and
recordings. This is the essential handbook to Bax and his period.
LEWIS FOREMAN is a freelance author and advisor to record
companies.
