Granville Ban­tock: A Musi­cal Wan­der­er — Book Launch
EM Pub­li­ca­tions, the pub­lish­ing arm of the Eng­lish Music Fes­ti­val, launch a new biog­ra­phy of com­poser Granville Ban­tock by his grand­son Dr Cuillin Ban­tock, with a chance to hear Bantock’s Vio­lin Sonata No.3 per­formed by Rupert Mar­shall-Luck (vio­lin) and Dun­can Hon­ey­bourne (piano). Born 150 years ago, Sir Granville Ban­tock was a major fig­ure in ear­ly 20th-cen­tu­ry British music, but his opu­lent roman­ti­cism with its ori­en­tal­ist lean­ings and Rus­sian influ­ences, went into eclipse after World War II.  The new book is a step towards bring­ing him back into recog­ni­tion.
