With extracts from the composer's letters, writings, interviews and
broadcasts, and supported by evidence from his sketchbooks and
manuscripts, The Orchestral Music of Michael Tippett explores
Tippett's intentions and argues that the experiences that triggered
his creative impulses are integral to understanding his music. In
his discussion of Tippett's creative process, Thomas Schuttenhelm
attempts to recapture the circumstances under which Tippett's
orchestral works were created, to document how his visionary
aspirations were developed and sustained throughout the creative
cycle, and to chart how conception was transmuted from idea through
to performance. Analysing Tippett's orchestral works throughout his
long career, from the Symphonic Movement of 1931 to his final
masterpiece The Rose Lake in 1991-3, Schuttenhelm explores each
work in detail to provide a comprehensive commentary on one of the
most influential British composers of the twentieth century.
