A century ago...
Wagner at Bayreuth and at Munich (by our special correspondent [Herbert Thompson]) [MT September 1902]
Selected excerpts: from Merrie England at the Savoy to a discourse on Japanese music. [MT, May 1902]
Friedrich Chrysander, an account: Following
the death of Friedrich Chrysander, Doctor of Philosophy, musician,
musical historian, critic, and editor, MT was pleased to be able
to publish an account of the life of this great Handelian scholar,
kindly contributed by his son-in-law, Mr. Charles Volkert. [MT, October 1901]
The pilgrim’s progress, reviewed by Hubert
Foss: The first night of Vaughan Williams’s ‘Pilgrim’s
Progress’, on Thursday 26 April at Covent Garden was an occasion
long to be remembered by those privileged to attend it. Here, unfolded
visually and aurally before us, was the product of a lifetime’s
devotion, not only to John Bunyan, but to the creation of music.
[MT, June 1951]
