Short bio Michael Tippett
Full biography Michael Tippett
Michael Tippett was a celebrated English composer of the 20th century. Born in London on January 2, 1905, Tippett studied at the Royal College of Music before working as a music director and conductor in the 1930s. He was also an active member of the Communist party during this time.
Tippett is best known for his operas, with his first opera, "The Midsummer Marriage," premiering in 1955. He went on to write several more operas, including "The Knot Garden," "The Ice Break," and "New Year."
Tippett's compositions were often highly innovative, incorporating a wide variety of musical styles and influences. He was particularly interested in the music of non-European cultures, and his works often included elements of African, Arabic, Indian, and American music.
In addition to his work as a composer, Tippett was also an active campaigner for peace and social justice. He opposed the Vietnam War and the apartheid regime in South Africa, and his music often reflected his political beliefs.
Michael Tippett was knighted in 1966 and was awarded the Order of Merit in 1983. He died on January 8, 1998, at the age of 93, leaving behind a rich legacy of musical innovation and political activism.
