Peter Beaven's tale leads us through the pitfalls and triumphs of a
career in choir directing and church music, orchestral conducting,
and professional singing in choirs and stage works. His teaching
experiences are just as hair-raising as his performing life. Being
there at the inception of the GCSE music exam, as a teacher, he
felt it wasn't an improvement on the previous exam and became
disenchanted with education, in general, and music education in
particular. The author maintains that he failed every exam he ever
sat, adding much weight to his argument, but also admits to a
modicum of success along the way. Despite earlier difficulties with
a genetic neuropathy, he conquered the disabilities to regain an
organ technique at the age of fifteen, which has served him well
for over fifty years. His adventures with the military have been a
twenty-year expedition through extraordinary happenings,
personalities, and experiences. All worthwhile but in marked
contrast to many other facets of his career.
