@britishcomposers @classicalmusic #geraldfinzi "Voices from things growing in a churchyard" from his song cycle "By Footpath & Stile" #geraldfinzi sadly a very direct experience of death; all 3 of his older brothers died before he was an adult. https://songwhip.com/finziquartet/by-footpath-and-stile-op-2-v-voices-from-things-growing-in-a-churchyard

@classicalmusic @britishcomposers #geraldfinzi As I am sure you all know that today (1st Dec) is "National Eat a Red Apple Day". So not trying too hard to create a link, it's worth pointing out that #geraldfinzi Finzi devoted himself to composing and apple-growing, saving a number of rare English apple varieties from extinction. So what is it that apples need to thrive - well "Earth and Air and Rain" and here it is https://songwhip.com/roderick-williams/earth-and-air-and-rain-op-15-no-7-to-lizbie-browne

Hi Ray

I happen to have part of #gerarldfinzi own library including his own copies of the English Madrigals and the works of William Byrd. Also copies of letters between #geraldfinzi and #herberthowells - as well many other composers e.g. #Vaughanwilliams #arthurbliss and many others - still working my way through though
