Frederick Delius and Peter Warlock

Barry Smith has here gathered together the correspondence of Frederick Delius and Philip Heseltine (Peter Warlock), two of the most fascinating figures of early twentiety-century English music. With the help of generous annotations and linking narrative the reader is given an intriguing portrait of the two composers and their music as well as an unusually intimate picture of musical life in England and Europe during the first thirty years of the twentieth century.
