John Stainer: A Life in Music
by Jeremy Dibble
Familiar to many as the composer of The Crucifixion and a useful method of organ playing, John Stainer provided a bridge from the music of Wesley to later composers such as Parry, Stanford and Elgar. Stainer was an important figure in the larger world of Anglican Church Music. This is a fine study of a musical contemporary of Queen Victoria and her era.
