Julian Budden
Julian Medforth Budden, BA, BMus (9 April 1924 in Hoylake, Wirral – 28 February 2007 in Florence, Italy) was a British opera scholar, radio producer and broadcaster. He is particularly known for his three volumes on the operas of Giuseppe Verdi (published in 1973, 1978, & 1981), a single volume biography in 1982 and a single volume work on Giacomo Puccini and his operas in 2002. He is also the author of numerous entries in the ''Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians''.
==Personal life==
His parents were the then professor of architecture at Liverpool University, Lionel Budden, and a poet, writer and journalist Maud, (née Fraser) who from 1938 until 1964 provided the rhymes for the strip 'Curly Wee and Gussie Goose', which was syndicated in newspapers throughout the world. Neither of his parents was especially musical and were not interested in what little opera was available locally. His operatic awakening occurred at school when a touring company with piano accompaniment and spoken recitatives performed ''The Marriage of Figaro''.〔Budden, J., "I can't live without ...''Le nozze di Figaro''", ''Opera'' (London), November 2000, Vol. 51 No. 11, p. 1392.〕
He attended Stowe School and read Classics at Queen's College Oxford.〔Parker, Roger, "Julian Budden 1924-2007", ''Opera'' (London), May 2007, pp. 538-9.〕〔Later in life he returned to review opera productions at Stowe. See: ''Rusalka'' (review). ''Opera'' (London), December 2001, pp. 1525-6.〕
The war interrupted his studies; he worked in the Friends' Ambulance Unit from 1943–46, serving in Austria and Italy. He completed his BA in 1948 and then studied piano (with Thornton Lofthouse) and bassoon (with Archie Camden) at the Royal College of Music.〔
