Sammanfattning: Shortly before his death, Percy Grainger (1882-1961) lodged over twenty unpublished sketches in his Australian museum. The book draws exclusively from these sketches, revealing an illuminating portrait of the composer's life. Grainger addresses such topics as racial and national identity, the meaning of work, physical culture, language reform, sexual practice, and artistic patronage. He also probes the nature of musical genius, discussing a broad range of composers including Igor Stravinsky, Thomas Beecham, Frederick Delius, Edvard Grieg, Charles Stanford, Cyril Scott, Fritz Kreisler, Donald Tovey, Ferruccio Busoni, and Balfour Gardiner
