Frank Howes
Frank Stewart Howes (2 April 1891 – 28 September 1974) was an English music critic. From 1943 to 1960 he was chief music critic of ''The Times''. From his student days Howes gravitated towards criticism as his musical specialism, guided by the advice of the conductor and professor Sir Hugh Allen and the critic H C Colles.
Howes was known for his affinity with English music in the tradition of the "English Musical Renaissance"; after 1945 he found the less nationalistic, more cosmopolitan nature of post-war composers uncongenial.
In addition to his work for ''The Times'', Howes wrote fifteen books, and served on many musical committees for bodies including the BBC and the Arts Council.
==Life and career==
Howes was born in Oxford, and was educated at Oxford High School and St John's College, where his love of music was developed under the tutelage of Sir Hugh Allen.〔"Mr Frank Howes", ''The Times'', 30 September 1974, p. 17〕 After military service in the First World War he was admitted to the Royal College of Music, where, guided by H C Colles, he specialised in musical criticism.〔
In 1925, Colles, who was chief music critic of ''The Times'', recruited Howes to his staff. In 1938 Howes took on the additional duties of lecturer at the Royal College, and was later an extramural lecturer at Oxford and Glasgow universities. When Colles died in 1942 Howes was appointed his successor.〔
Among Howes's enthusiasms was English folk music, and from 1927 to 1945 he edited the journal of the English Folk Dance and Song Society.〔 He supported the theory that the folk song enthusiasts Hubert Parry and Charles Villiers Stanford led an "English Musical Renaissance" in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, from which composers not from a Royal College elite were excluded.〔Eatock, Colin (2010). "The Crystal Palace Concerts: Canon Formation and the English Musical Renaissance". ''19th-Century Music'', 34 (1), pp. 87–105; and Onderdonk, Julian. "The English Musical Renaissance, 1860–1940: Construction and Deconstruction," ''Notes – Quarterly Journal of the Music Library Association'', September 1995, pp. 63–66〕 His obituarist in ''The Times'' considered that of Howes's 15 books, it was the 1996 ''The English Musical Renaissance'' that meant most to him.〔 According to his fellow-critic Martin Cooper, Howes's affinity with music in the "English Renaissance" tradition left him out of sympathy with the cosmopolitan outlook of composers after the Second World War.〔
Among Howes's other books were studies of William Byrd, Ralph Vaughan Williams and William Walton. As well as writing, he was active in behind-the-scenes musical work, as president of the Royal Musical Association (1947–58), chairman of the Musicians' Benevolent Fund (1936–55); and member of music advisory panels for the BBC, the Arts Council and the British Council.〔〔
Howes married Barbara Tidd Pratt in 1928; they had a son and three daughters.〔 He died at Standlake, Oxfordshire, at the age of 83.〔
