Kenneth Gloag, whose death was announced today by the University of Cardiff, was a leading authority on the music of Nicholas Maw, as well as other UK composers.

Professor Gloag wrote the Cambridge monograph on Tippett’s A Child of our Time and contributed to other volumes on Tippett, Maw, Birtwistle and Maxwell Davies.

His last published work was Postmodernism in Music (Cambridge University Press, 2012).
