Description

xvi, 180 pages : illustrations, portraits ; 24 cm. "The Search for Thomas F. Ward, Teacher of Frederick Delius" by Don Gillespie. Thomas F. Ward (1865-1912), the American teacher of composer Frederick Delius, died in historical oblivion and was buried in an unmarked grave, apparently too poor to pay his own funeral expenses. This biography... describes his crucial influence on Delius, an Englishman whose formative musical years were spent under Ward's tutelage in the mid-1800's on an orange plantation on the St. John's River south of Jacksonville, Florida. Includes bibliographical references and index. JAMM
