The A Z of String Players surveys the lives, careers and recordings
of over 300 string players from the past and present. Many great
string players who have made recordings are included, from Accardo
to Zukerman. The text covers artists from the earliest recording
processes to contemporary, cutting-edge technology. In this clear
and straight-forward publication, the artists are listed
alphabetically, with a summary of their career, notable recordings,
biography and critical appraisal of their recorded legacy. In
addition, four compact discs present a selection of recordings from
69 artists. This package will appeal to enthusiast and scholar
alike as a readable, informed and fascinating work of reference.
Director Tony Britten's drama documentary examines the acclaimed
composer's lifelong commitment to pacifism. Using a dramatic
narrative to explore the development of Britten's pacifist beliefs
during the time he spent at the liberally progressive Gresham's
School in Norfolk between the years of 1928-1930, the film charts a
time which marked a crucial period of the composer's personal and
musical development. Interwoven throughout are contemporary
performances of the composer's works and contributions from,
amongst others, conductor and composer Joseph Horovitz, cellists
Anita Lasker Wallfisch and Raphael Wallfisch, and Britten's agent
for many years, Sue Phipps. John Hurt narrates.
