Message: Elgar how obituari | Classic music

ELGAR HCOWARTH was in many ways, a typical musician, the behavior of his profession would be worthy of attention. He devoted a lot of his time to the new music, a great trumpet player and his connection, which helped a wide range of composers achieve their goals.

He played the first notes in the Oprah Michael Tibet at the first show at the festival to celebrate the opening of the Coventry Cathedral in 1962. This was the turning point in the reputation of the composer, which is often treated with contempt by conductors and other British players. Hourath has become one of the most excited Tibet heroes.

However, it was actually very modest and rejected honor. It was believed that composers were important in the first place and their work should be taken seriously. I worked with him to create the Tippett’s Shires and Praeludium wing for copper, bells and rhythm. It was aimed at perfection and achieved it, without a noise or reputation.
