Muriel Herbert : ウィキペディア英語版 | Muriel Herbert
Muriel Emily Herbert (1897 – 1 May 1984) was a female British composer of the early 20th century. Much of Herbert's work is for solo voice and piano, with art song settings of texts by English and Irish poets such as James Joyce, Thomas Hardy, Ben Jonson, Robert Herrick and W.B. Yeats. ==Early life== Muriel Emily Herbert was born in 1897 in Sheffield and grew up in Liverpool, England. She grew up singing and playing music in the home as her mother was the church choir director. She was the youngest child and only daughter. Her older brother Percy, was also a musician and encouraged his younger sister to study music, for which she had a natural ability. She began writing down songs for voice and piano at a young age. In 1909, her father died and the Herbert family struggled with poverty. A journalist for the Liverpool Post, Hugh Farrie, encouraged her to become a concert pianist, but Muriel's interest was in composition.
