EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the distinguished figure of Cecil Armstrong Gibbs (1889-1967), a renowned British musical composer known for his exquisite waltz, "Dusk," and settings of the poet Walter de la Mare's works. The image, taken in the early 1960s, depicts Armstrong Gibbs in deep concentration, his furrowed brow and introsive gaze suggesting the depth of creativity that flowed through him. Born in London, Armstrong Gibbs studied at the Royal College of Music and the Royal Academy of Music, where he honed his skills as a composer and pianist. He began his career as a music teacher before turning to composition full-time in the 1920s. His early works were primarily orchestral, but he gained widespread acclaim for his settings of de la Mare's poetry, which he began in the 1930s. Armstrong Gibbs' collaboration with de la Mare resulted in a series of beloved works, including "Four Poems of Walter de la Mare" (1934) and "Six Poems of Walter de la Mare" (1935). His most famous composition, "Dusk," was written in 1939 and has since become a staple of the classical repertoire. The hauntingly beautiful waltz, with its lilting melody and evocative harmonies, captures the essence of twilight and the passing of time. Armstrong Gibbs' music is characterized by its lyrical beauty, rich harmonies, and intricate rhythms. His compositions have been performed by leading orchestras and ensembles around the world, and his legacy continues to inspire new generations of musicians and composers. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the enduring power of music to transport us to another time and place, and of the remarkable talent and dedication of the artists who bring that music to life.
