Description
"Australian-born composer Peggy Glanville-Hicks, born in 1912, was trained in England and France, lived and worked in America, spent her mature years in Greece, and died in Sydney in 1990. Known as PG-H from her New York Herald Tribune byline, she was a distinguished journalist and passionate advocate of modern music during her long and influential career. Her compositions include solo concertos, chamber music, four operas, and five ballets. The story of her life is an extraordinary tale of riotous fun, cruel lovers, grueling poverty, earnest endeavor, and huge success, peopled by some of the leading performers, writers, and creative artists of her time. As this highly entertaining and informative biography shows us, her love life was disastrous but her friendships were exalted."--BOOK JACKET.
