   Extractions: Main Page See live article Alphabetical index Born in 1891 of an English father and American mother, Arthur Bliss was destined to display characteristics of both nations, his profound romanticism balanced by an unquenchable energy and optimism. After studying at the Royal College of Music under Stanford , he served as an infantry officer in the First World War. With the return of peace , Bliss’ career took off rapidly as a composer of what were, for British audiences, startlingly new pieces often for unusual ensembles, such as a concerto for wordless tenor voice, piano and strings, and ‘Rout’ for soprano and chamber orchestra, in which the voice sings phonetic sounds rather than words. Much of his early music shows the influence of Stravinsky and Debussy . A landmark was his ‘Colour Symphony’ of 1922 which explores the idea of the musical associations of different colours. From the late twenties onwards Bliss moved more into the traditional English scene with choral works such as ‘Pastoral’ and ‘Morning Heroes’, and in the 1930s he wrote the music for the film ‘Things to Come’ and the ballet ‘Checkmate’. Bliss was always an ambitious, prolific composer, and some of his works were clearly intended for a wider international audience than they actually received. The ‘Introduction and Allegro’ and the Piano Concerto are examples, the concerto being premiered by Solomon at the 1939 New York World’s Fair.

    Extractions: Sir Arthur Bliss, Master of the Queen's Music in Great Britain from 1953 until his death, eventually followed the late romantic tradition of Elgar in English music, after a more controversial period of composition in youth. In accordance with the perceived duties of his official position, he wrote various ceremonial pieces, in addition to music for the concert-hall, theatre and cinema. Film Music Familiar music by Bliss includes excerpts from his film-score for H.G. Wells's Things to Come, and the patriotic march Welcome the Queen, also written for a film.
