Alexander Goehr is one of the most eminent British Composers
of our time; his large output ranges from opera to solo instrumenta
works and his music has been internationally acclaimed. This anthology
of essays and personal tributes, by colleagues, former students
and friends, not only brings Goehr's own music into sharp focus
but reflects some of his wide-ranging interests and ideas. It
is supplemented by a biographical profile, complete work-list,
bibliography, discography and CD recording.
