Autor: Melvin Rea

Melvin Rea was born in the U.K. but has spent his adult years abroad. He studied piano and composition in southern Germany before going on to complete a doctorate in Musikwissenschaft in what was then West Berlin. He is the author of a comprehensive study of the music of the composer, Frederick Delius. Holding also an M.A. in English Literature, he combines his deep love of music with a passion for the English language. His interest in politics is, however, purely intellectual: as a ‘foreigner’ everywhere, he has nowhere been permitted to vote in a national election.
