£55 reduced to £52.50 post free

Described by Maurice Ravel as one of the most considerable talents in French music of his generation, Darius Milhaud remains a largely neglected composer. This book reappraises his contribution, focusing on the emergence of the composer’s style until his Jewish background forced his exile to the United States on the eve of the World War II.

Contents: Preface; Milhaud, Les Six amd musical politics in Paris; Milhaud’s writings on tradition and identity; Works for music theatre 1: collaboration with Paul Claudel; Works for music theatre 2: the chamber operas; Vocal music: texts and voices; Polytonality, counterpoint and instrumentation; Milhaud and the past; Conclusions: Bibliography; Index.

Includes 5 b&w illustrations and c.100 musical examples

April 2003 c. 240 pages
