April 25, 2015   -   "British Music from the Time of the Raj"

This period (1858 to 1947) marks the return of English composers to the forefront, for the first time since the death of Henry Purcel in 1695. Their music was a celebration the glory of the British Empire, and chronicled its steady decline and disolution after the Great War. We punctuate this with a few "post Raj" pieces.
