Title: Flecker and Delius - the Making of "Hassan".
Description: London Thames Publishing, 1978. Hardback small, dustjacket, very good plus condition (in very good plus dustjacket), glossy paper, black & white photos, minimal edgewear. 106 pp. "Hassan" was hailed as the "greatest poetic play since The Tempest", when first produced in 1923 (Her Majesty's Theatre, produced by Basil Dean). This play brought the names of Flecker (words) and Delius (music) before the public. Redwood has researched unpublished letters to reveal the revisions of both words and music before this important play reached the stage. She also compares the lives and outlook of the two men, and analyses the plot. Includes reviews of the first British and German productions, and a note on the music for future producers.
