Zusammenfassung: | Cyril Scott (1879-1970) was an English composer, writer and poet. He was a prolific composer-pianist writing over 400 works including four symphonies, three operas and concerti for piano, violin, cello, oboe and harpsichord. Often performing his own compositions he became a pioneer of British piano music, and his music was admired by composers as diverse as Debussy, Strauss, Stravinsky and Percy Grainger, the last a lifelong friend. A true polymath, Scott was also the author of forty-one books, including two autobiographies and one unpublished memoir, on subjects ranging from music, alternative medicine and humour to occultism, theosophy and Christianity. In addition, he wrote poems and plays and painted watercolours. This Companion explores the life and work of this remarkably creative man. It provides a comprehensive analysis and appraisal of all the available music and includes a complete catalogue of his musical works, along with a discography. Several works completely unknown to the musical world, both music and literary (such as the memoir 'Near the End of Life'), are here newly catalogued and discussed. Altogether, the volume gives a broad picture of Scott's entire output in literary, dramatic and philosophical genres. -- -- DESMOND SCOTT is the son of Cyril Scott. He was an actor, theatre director and TV writer. He is also a sculptor and past-President of the Sculptors Society of Canada. He has contributed to The New Percy Grainger Companion (Boydell Press, 2010) and has published articles in musical journals on Cyril Scott. LEWIS FOREMAN has published many books and articles on music. His Boydell titles include Bax: A Composer and his Times (2007), The John Ireland Companion (2011) and with Susan Foreman Felix Aprahamian (2015). LESLIE DE'ATH is Professor, Faculty of Music, Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, Canada. He is Associate Editor of the Journal of Singing, a pianist, conductor and opera director. He has recorded Scott's complete solo piano music for Dutton. (Klappentext) |

Cyril Scott (1879 -1970) was an English
composer, writer and poet. He was a
prolific composer-pianist writing over
400 works including four symphonies,
three operas and concern for piano,
violin, cello, oboe and harpsichord. Often
performing his own compositions he
became a pioneer of British piano music,
and his music was admired by composers
as diverse as Debussy, Strauss, Stravinsky
and Percy Grainger, the last a lifelong
friend. A true polymath, Scott was also
the author of forty-one books, including
two autobiographies and one unpublished
memoir, on subjects ranging from music,
alternative medicine and humour to
occultism, theosophy and Christianity.
In addition, he wrote poems and plays
and painted watercolours.
This Companion explores the life and
work of this remarkably creative man.
It provides a comprehensive analysis
and appraisal of all the available music
and includes a complete catalogue of his
musical works, along with a discography.
Several works completely unknown to the
musical world, both music and literary
(such as the memoir ‘Near the End of Life’),
are here newly catalogued and discussed.
Altogether, the volume gives a broad
picture of Scott’s entire output in literary,
dramatic and philosophical genres.
Desmond Scott is the son of Cyril Scott.
He was art actor, theatre director and
I V writer. He is also a sculptor and past-
president of the Sculptors Society of
Canada. He has contributed to The New
Percy Grainger Cornj?anion (Boydell Press,
2010) and has published articles in musical
journals on Cyril Scott.
Lewis Foreman has published many
books and articles on music. His Boydell
titles include Bax: A Composer and his
Times (2007), The John Ireland Companion
(2011) and with Susan Foreman Telix
Aprahamian (2015).
Leslie De’Ath is Professor, Faculty of
Music, Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo,
Canada. He is Associate Editor of the
Jonrnal of Singing, a pianist, conductor
and opera director. He has recorded Scott’s
complete solo piano music for Dutton.

Select Bibliography Cyril Scott (1879-1970) was an English composer, writer and poet. He was a prolific composer-pianist writing over 400 works including four symphonies, three operas and concerti for piano, violin, cello, oboe and harpsichord. Often performing his own compositions he became a pioneer of British piano music, and his music was admired by composers as diverse as Debussy, Strauss, Stravinsky and Percy Grainger, the last a lifelong friend. A true polymath, Scott was also the author of forty-one books, including two autobiographies and one unpublished memoir, on subjects ranging from music, alternative medicine and humour to occultism, theosophy and Christianity. In addition, he wrote poems and plays and painted watercolours. This Companion explores the life and work of this remarkably creative man. It provides a comprehensive analysis and appraisal of all the available music and includes a complete catalogue of his musical works, along with a discography. Several works completely unknown to the musical world, both music and literary (such as the memoir 'Near the End of Life'), are here newly catalogued and discussed. Altogether, the volume gives a broad picture of Scott's entire output in literary, dramatic and philosophical genres. -- -- DESMOND SCOTT is the son of Cyril Scott. He was an actor, theatre director and TV writer. He is also a sculptor and past-President of the Sculptors Society of Canada. He has contributed to The New Percy Grainger Companion (Boydell Press, 2010) and has published articles in musical journals on Cyril Scott. LEWIS FOREMAN has published many books and articles on music. His Boydell titles include Bax: A Composer and his Times (2007), The John Ireland Companion (2011) and with Susan Foreman Felix Aprahamian (2015). LESLIE DE'ATH is Professor, Faculty of Music, Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, Canada. He is Associate Editor of the Journal of Singing, a pianist, conductor and opera director. He has recorded Scott's complete solo piano music for Dutton.
