Hamish MacCunn (1868-1916): A Musical LifeAuthor :
Paperback
Published : Monday 28 November 2016
Description
As the first comprehensive study of MacCunns life, this book illustrates how social and cultural situations, as well as personal relationships, influenced his career. Having risen to fame in the late 1880s with a string of Scottish works, MacCunn further highlighted his Caledonian background by cultivating a Scottish artistic persona that defined him throughout his life. A talented composer, but also a difficult individual who made poor professional choices, MacCunn played a role in establishing national identity in British music but also ultimately sabotaged his own career.
