- Summary:
- Town (music, Northwest Missouri State U.) chose the genre of choral music for its prominence place in British music over time. He selected composers Hubert Parry, Charles Stanford, Ralph Vaughan Williams, Gerald Finzi, Edmund Rubbra, and George Dyson--for their significant contributions; and he selected works by these composers for their importance to the composers' oeuvres and to history. His essays offer historical context and critical discussion. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
