Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Gustav Theodore Holst (21 September 1874 25 May 1934) was an English composer. He is most famous for his orchestral suite The Planets. Having studied at the Royal College of Music in London, his early work was influenced by Grieg, Wagner, Richard Strauss and fellow student Ralph Vaughan Williams, and later, through Vaughan Williams, the music of Ravel. The combined influence of Ravel, Hindu spiritualism and English folk tunes enabled Holst to free himself of the influence of Wagner and Strauss and to forge his own style. Holst's music is well known for unconventional use of metre and haunting melodies. Holst composed almost 200 works, including operas, ballets, choral hymns and songs (see Selected works below). An enthusiastic educator, Holst became music master at St Paul's Girls' School in 1905 and director of music at Morley College in 1907, continuing in both posts until retirement. He was the brother of Hollywood actor Ernest Cossart and father of the composer and conductor Imogen Holst, who wrote a biography of him in 1938. He was originally named Gustavus Theodor von Holst, but he dropped the "von" from his name in response to anti-German sentiment in Britain during World War I, making it official by deed poll in 1918. Holst was born on 21 September 1874, at 4 Pittville Terrace (named today Clarence Road), Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, England to a family of Swedish extraction (by way of Latvia and Russia). The house was opened as a museum devoted to Holst's life and times in 1974. Holst's grandfather, Gustavus von Holst (born 1799) of Riga, Latvia, moved to England with his parents as a child; he became a composer of elegant harp music and a notable harp teacher. Holst's father, Adolph von Holst, was organist and choirmaster at All Sain... More: http://booksllc.net/?id=49241 ... Read more

Excerpt:Operas by Gustav Holst At the Boar's Head is an opera in one act by the English composer Gustav Holst , his op. 42. Holst himself described the work as "A Musical Interlude in One Act". The libretto , by the composer himself, is based on Shakespeare 's Henry IV, Part 1 and Henry IV, Part 2 . Holst devised the idea for this opera in 1924, whilst convalescing from an illness. During this period, he alternated between reading Henry IV, Part I and an edition of John Playford 's The English Dancing Master , as well as folk melodies collected by Cecil Sharp and others. Holst noticed that the rhythm and metre of Shakespeare's lines matched the tunes in the Playford, as well as the tunes that Sharp and others had collected. He then decided to set a number of those melodies to a story assembled from episodes set at the Boar's Head Inn from the two parts of Henry IV . Three of the melodic passages are original, including a recitative for Prince Hal and a setting for the sonnets. Otherwise, Holst devised his score from reworking the collected folk tunes. Imogen Holst summarised the folk tunes which her father used in the score as follows: The opera received its first performance at the Palace Theatre in Manchester on 3 April 1925, by the British National Opera Company, with Malcolm Sargent conducting. A performance at the Golders Green Hippodrome followed on 20 April 1925, with the following singers among the cast : Holst's opera was part of a double bill with Puccini 's Gianni Schicchi .
