Gerald Finzi (1901-56)
A pacifist who
believed that creative artists were the prime representatives of a
civilization, Gerald Finzi is perhaps best known as a composer of
songs. He believed that all texts of artistic merit can be set by
composers who wish to work with their artistic substance; none are
either too fine or too familiar. Many of his songs are set in an
aria-like style. His accompaniments, designed to complement and support
the material of the singer, are often reminiscent of the treatment
given his short orchestral works. Finzi was influenced in his melodic
and harmonic vocabulary by the music of Elgar and Vaughan Williams. His
works also show a strong influence by the music of J.S. Bach.- allmusic
