Bernarr Rainbow on Music

Edited by Peter Dickinson.  First Edition.  Bernarr Rainbow's Memoirs written in the last year or two of his life offers a fascinating read about the life of the man who became the leading historian of music education.  The book answers questions about how his life and work developed and how he came to establish the Bernarr Rainbow Trust before he died in 1998.  The collection will also bring together Rainbow's writings published in various magazines, some of very limited circulation.  The notes by Peter Dickinson cover Rainbow's earlier life and career, from archival material including press cuttings and including areas he does not cover in his memoirs.  There are introductions by Gordon Cox and Charles Plummeridge.  Hardcover, 398 p.
