Selected songs spanning
50 years demonstrating
Pitfield's distinctive
voice, to be cherished
for its precision of
technique and delicacy of
effect. John McCabe
writes if Pitfield had
written only the first
song in the book, Cuckoo
and Chestnut Time, he
would have earned our
gratitude for that
perfect little gem alone!
Also contains the
composer's own
illustrations. Thomas
Pitfield had the gift for
memorable tunes, often
couched in somewhat
French-sounding harmonic
and decorative idiom. He
admired Vaughan Williams,
Grainger and Delius and
their influence can be
felt in his works.
