PRIZE: 2006 Winner of the ARSC 'Best Discography' in the 'Best Research in Recorded Classical Music' category. 'While Spring and Summer Sang chronicles both the personal and professional relationship between two of British music's greatest protagonists. The fact that the relationship blossomed during one of British music's most exciting times ... ensures that Lyndon Jenkins's enthralling narrative is far from being a mere procession of compositions, dates and places. The book's five chapters - divided by date - are followed by four invaluable appendices... Today, Delius's music is horribly neglected.... In these strident times there is perhaps more reason than ever to rediscover its magic, and Lyndon Jenkins's excellent volume - a model of its kind - will surely encourage people to do just that.' Julian Lloyd Webber, The Daily Telegraph '... [an] admirable volume... an elegant and long-deserved tribute to the greatest of all Delian interpreters.' The British Music Society Newsletter '...[a] splendid and richly researched book...' The Gramophone 'For once we have an interesting, well written, nicely produced volume telling us everything about its chosen subject and more besides.' Classical Record Collector 'Not the least remarkable aspect of this book is the discographical commentary in the first appendix, an absolutely invaluable and comprehensive [...[ survey'... Jenkins [...] writes beautiful and elegant prose.' International Record Review '...the book is informative and accomplishes its task, which is to show that Sir Thomas was devoted to Delius and that their relationship was remarkably close...The 27-page discography of Beecham/Delius recordings is valuable and useful...’ Choice '... this is an elegant and long-deserved tribute to the greatest of all Delian interpreters.' Tempo '... an entertaining read... Lyndon Jenkins has researched all of this material meticulously. This book belongs in the library of every Delian. Bravo!' The Delian
