Price: 20.95 euro In this authoritative study, Eric Wetherell reveals for the first time the deeply human personality of the post-war professor of music at Cambridge.

He was a loyal friend and a man of infinite generosity. Those who, for the most part, knew only the mask of the clown could not have guessed at the turmoil and loneliness of his bachelor existence. |
