内容説明

John Ireland (1879-1962) was one of the leading composers of the so-called English musical Renaissance at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century. Born of literary parents in Bowdon, near Manchester, he came to London at the age of 14 to study at the newly-founded Royal College of Music, where he eventually became a pupil of Stanford's. He is best known for his songs ("Sea Fever", "The Bells of San Marie" and the cycle of Housman settings, "The Land of Lost Content"), his piano and chamber music, and his relatively small number of choral, orchestral and brass band works. This catalogue of Ireland's compositions, published in association with the John Ireland Trust, lists all his compositions from 1895 to 1961. Full details are given of dates of compositions, people or bodies responsible for a work's commission, instrumentations, first performance, publications, the location of the autographed manuscript, critical comment in the bibliography, and significant recordings. Appended are notes in the form of commentaries on the background to a work, commissions which did not come to fruition, and biographical information about the composer and dedicatees, mainly drawn from original documentary sources, especially letters.
