Donald Macleod charts the rollercoaster career of Cornish composer George Lloyd, a career described in his obituary in The Times as 'A remarkable cycle of recognition and neglect'.
In a changing musical climate, Lloyd held unswervingly to his own course and became a cult figure as 'the modern composer who wrote tunes'.
