Nigel ShortAbout
Composed towards the end of Parry’s life, the Songs of Farewell have taken on something of an epithetical interpretation. They are almost a musical summation of his compositional life, reflecting Parry’s love of English renaissance madrigals and partsongs as much as the influence on his work from German composers like Brahms – made more complicated as these works were composed as the country (and its music) fell out of favour at the start of the Great War.
