I watched The Prince and the Composer: A Film about Hubert Parry on BBC4 last night. An hour and a half. At the end I felt I had watched a really important cultural analysis - one that told me things I didn't know. Not just about Sir Hubert Parry, but also about the way music is structured and why one note might be more important than another. Also the understated nature of Parry's music. At the end I felt I could immediately watch it through all over again.
I really appreciate programmes like this - ones that help my mind to grow.
Everything about it was good.
