A Prosopography
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 August 2019
This prosopography, or collective biography, gives a more rounded idea of the College and its people. Institutional histories can concentrate so much on the leadership, and the consequences of leaders’ decisions, that the reader may not discover very much about the centrality of the contributions others have made. In the College’s case, this means the teachers themselves. This selection includes some of the more celebrated (and therefore familiar) College figures, but also brings in from the shadows some who were once very influential, but now are largely forgotten; they often feature routinely in biographies (as, for example, R. O. Morris does for Michael Tippett), but usually with little to indicate the scope of the musical guidance they gave to their students. This prosopography cannot be, in any sense, comprehensive; rather, the criterion for inclusion is to illustrate a particular point or circumstance about the transmission of musical influence and the role that the College and its teachers have played in this.
