Imogen Holst (1907-1984), was a key figure in twentieth-century British musical life. The only child of English composer Gustav Holst, she excelled as a composer, writer, conductor, teacher and administrator. Yet she chose to dedicate much of her creative life to the music of two men she regarded as much greater than herself. Between 1952 and 1964 she was employed as music assistant to Benjamin Britten, of whom she became a friend and close associate, before dedicating the last years of her life to promoting the cause of her father's music and cementing his legacy. One of the most wide-ranging and highly regarded of musicians, popular with all who knew her, she was intensively protective of her inner life, reminding one friend of a 'locked door of which she had thrown away the key'. This revised edition uses a wealth of newly discovered material to draw out the complexities and contradictions of her life and career, drawing on her own writings - ranging from heartfelt early poetry, through correspondence and a series of journals that maintain a colourful record of her travels and achievements. Most revealing of these is the daily journal that she kept at the start of her working association with Britten, a document that provides a unique insight both into her own thoughts, and into the professional and domestic life of a major composer. The book also includes a study of Imogen Holst's music and a chronological list of her works, revealing her as a composer of tremendous talent, whose music deserves to be much more familiar..../ Imogen Holst: A Life in Music: Revised Edition (Aldeburgh Studies in Music) / CABARET SONG
