Seller's Description:
1980. David & Charles. Book-VG, spine ends & corners slightly rubbed. DJ-VG, edgewear. Spine slightly sunned. 9.5x6.5. 584pp. Begun in 1843, the members of the Musical Society at Cambridge University decided to make plans for the jubilee celebration in 1893. The desire of the young passionate musicians was to give foreign composers honorary doctorates. They chose Brahms and Verdi. Sadly, however, these two composers turned down their invitations. To find another musician worthy of this honor proved to be a difficult problem. After four visits to Cambridge to meet with various members, Tchaikovsky was chosen and he accepted this great honor. Charles Stanford did much to insure the success of the jubilee celebration. This certainly brought Tchaikovsky much acclaim and helped launch his acceptance as a famed European composer. This is the candid history of the society at Cambridge and the enthusiasm which the members brought with them. Gerald Norris has captured the excitement amongst the young musicians. He has written a wonderful history of the society and particularly of Charles Stanford.
