A Man of Our Time:
Two photographic exhibitions on Sir Michael Tippett's life and works
Previously available in one format only, the portable exhibition, A Man of Our Time, has been re-designed in two separate formats, which will make it easier to house at a variety of venues.
These exhibitions illustrate Sir Michael Tippett's career with extracts from concert and opera programmes, reviews and photographs of opera productions. They also contain pages reproduced from several Tippett manuscripts giving a fascinating glimpse of the composer at work.
The exhibitions cover the composer's childhood, his student years, his early works, including the composition of the oratorio 'A Child of Our Time' and his five operas along with a complete biography and list of works.
