Описание фильма: Format: Paperback Verified Purchase Charles Elford's book is a timely and welcome tribute to the English Composer Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Coleridge is a little-known name today, but in the late-Victorian and Edwardian period he was immensely popular and highly regarded in this country and America. At the Royal College of Music he was a pupil of Stanford and a contemporary of William Hurlstone and Vaughan Williams, among others.
Coleridge died at the age of 37, having suffered for most of his life from ill-health, relative poverty and less than honest dealings with his publishers.
Charles Elford has set out to bring Coleridge to life by dramatising the facts that he has unearthed. In the Bibliography he lists what I assume to be his major sources and has no doubt added a little poetic licence. The result is very definitely not a dry academic tome, but - quite literally - a real page turner. My wife and I both read the 346 pages quickly and with a real sense of anticipation; we wanted to know what happened next.
Coleridge's life deserved a passionate and readable account by someone who understood him and sympathised with him. Charles Elford's excellent book meets this need admirably. Our only very small critical comment is that we would have liked to see a chronoligical list of compositions and a current discography.
