Certainly, Composing in Words offers much to the reader curious
about the man and ideas behind the film and concert scores. Yet it
is also to be recommended to those who want to know more about
British music of this period, and about those who contributed to
it.
*MUSIC AND LETTERS*
Admirably presented and edited...there's certainly something for
everyone, and the wide interests and erudition of William Alwyn are
impressively displayed.
*GRAMOPHONE*
A rewarding collection.
*CHOICE*
The reader will be impressed by the presentation of this
volume...the editor has not imposed himself on the text, but has
allowed Alwyn's voice to come through both loud and clear. It is a
book that is essential and will long be in demand as research in
William Alwyn and exploration of his music continues over the
coming years.
