The English composer Arnold Bax (1883-1953) is best known for his colourful tone-poems and symphonies. In his youth, as `Dermot O'Byrne', he wrote Irish stories, poems, and plays; in later life he became Master of the Queen's Music. This uniquely comprehensive catalogue documents the entire output of the man whom Sibelius called `my son in music'.
