THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH: "Úžasné množství faktů sdělených jen tak mimochodem." THE DAILY MAIL: "Během okamžiku okouzlíte okolí svými znalostmi, aniž byste je skutečně měli a aniž byste museli cokoli studovat."

This series of biographies presents the great composers against the background of their times. Each draws on personal letters and recollections, engravings, paintings and, when they exist, photographs, to present a complete picture of the composer s life.

Born in 1925 in Cheshire, Peter's musical journey began with his father's influence as a cellist. After serving as a tank driver in the Royal Armoured Corps during WWII, he pursued higher education at Wadham College, Oxford, where he became poetry editor. His career as a music editor at Decca Records transitioned into freelance writing, leading to over forty publications on jazz, ragtime, and classical music, including notable works like The Oxford Companion to Popular Music. He currently resides in Shepperton with his wife, Anna.
