Wood also found himself at the heart of a new antiquarian revival of early music, plainsong, psalmody and hymnody where his knowledge was uniquely encyclopaedic. This book offers a reassessment of his lasting legacy, the admiration he drew from figures such as Vaughan Williams, Dent and Tippett, and also discusses a considerable series of posthumous publications.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jeremy Dibble\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1837654107\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781837654109\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Boydell Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/12\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 418\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.94d","brand":"Jeremy Dibble","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48520223981823,"sku":"9781837654109","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_50fa271e-f0d1-4f52-acb4-cfa63b8f81fb.jpg?v=1778741478","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-life-and-music-of-jeremy-dibble-9781837654109","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
