In Old Japan - A Music Score for Male Voices and Tenor Solo - Words by W. E. Henley
No Customer Reviews
This volume contains the complete sheet music for Cecil Forsyth's "In Old Japan", a musical composition set to the words of the eponymous poem by William Ernest Henley (1849 - 1903). Henley was an English poet, editor, and critic during the end of the Victorian period. He is widely considered to have had as important a role in his time as Samuel Johnson had during the eighteenth century. This beautiful composition will appeal to fans of poetry and classical music alike, and it is not to be missed by collectors of Forsyth's seminal work. Cecil Forsyth (1870 - 1941) was an English composer and musicologist. He played the viola in various orchestras in London after attending the University of Edinburgh and the Royal College of Music, where he studied together with Hubert Parry and Charles Villiers Stanford. He is best remembered for his operas "Westward Ho " and "Cinderella", as well as the choral ballad "Tinker, Tailor". Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of musical notation.
