The rehabilitation of British music began with Hubert Parry and
Charles Villiers Stanford. Ralph Vaughan Williams assisted in its
emancipation from continental models, while Gerald Finzi, Edmund
Rubbra and George Dyson flourished in its independence. Stephen
Town's survey of Choral Music of the English Musical Renaissance is
rooted in close examination of selected works from these composers.
Town collates the substantial secondary literature on these
composers, and brings to bear his own study of the autograph
manuscripts. The latter form an unparalleled record of
compositional process and shed new light on the compositions as
they have come down to us in their published and recorded form.
This close study of the sources allows Town to identify for the
first time instances of similarity and imitation, continuities and
connections between the works.
