Autoren-Porträt von Jenny Doctor
Jenny Doctor is a musicologist intrigued by social aspects of British culture in the twentieth century, particularly with respect to the development of sound technologies. After she was awarded a Fulbright Grant to the UK in 1989, she stayed on, rummaging around the BBC archives whenever possible; her investigations led to The BBC and Ultra-Modern Music, 1922-36: Shaping a Nation's Tastes (1999). With Sir Nicholas Kenyon and David Wright, she co-edited The Proms: A New History (2007), contributing an essay on the interwar period. At the same time, she and Nicky Losseff co-edited Silence, Music, Silent Music (Ashgate, 2007), to which she contributed the essay, 'The Texture of Silence'. Jenny's interest in mid-twentieth-century British composers is evident in essays she's published on Elgar, Vaughan Williams and Britten, as well as in an article that she recently published in Musical Quarterly, 'The Parataxis of British Musical Modernism' (91/1-2 (2008): 89-115Sophie Fuller studied music at King's College, London University and was a lecturer in music at the University of Reading. She is the author of The Pandora Guide to Women Composers: Britain and the United States, 1629-present (1994) and has co-edited a variety of essays around this topic. Sophie's research interests include many different aspects of music, gender and sexuality but focus in particular on musical life in late 19th- and 20th-century Britain. Her most recent work in this area has been on creative women and exoticism in fin-de-siècle Britain and on the significance of the private musical world in the life and career of Edward Elgar. Other interests include song, together with its composers and singers - from Hildegard of Bingen through Maude Valérie White and Clara Butt to George Michael - and Russian music and music in Russia.
