About this ebook:
This spellbinding centenary biography looks at the music, the life, and the legacy of the greatest British composer of the twentieth centuryBenjamin Britten was born on November 22, 1913 in the East Suffolk town of Lowestoft. Displaying a passion and proficiency for music at an early age, to the delight of his mother Edith, a talented amateur musician herself, he began composing music when he was only five years old. After studying at the Royal College of Music, Britten went on to write documentary scores for the General Post Office Film Unit where he met and collaborated with the poet W. H. Auden.Of more lasting importance was Britten's meeting in 1937 to the tenor Peter Pears, who was to become the inspirational center of his emotional and musical life. Their partnership lasted nearly four decades, during a dangerous time when homosexuality was illegal in England. Conscientious of objectors, Britten and Pears followed Auden to America before the war began in 1939. While there, they joined the extraordinary Brooklyn ménage of George Davis, Louis MacNeice and Paul Bowles.Eventually intense homesickness, provoked in part by George Crabbe's poem "Peter Grimes", drove the pair home to East Anglia in 1942 and gave Britten the inspiration for his finest opera. Throughout his career, Britten did not want modern music to be just for "the cultured few", and instead always composed his music to be "listenable-to". The shared quotidian lives of Benjamin Britten and Peter Pears unfold in this intimate biography and together the men created a truly remarkable legacy.
