    Brian Easdale The Red Shoes Composer Birthday

    The articles get more and more difficult to write, so the submissions get later and later. Is it any wonder that the Monday posts get flimsier and flimsier?

    Today is the birthday of Brian Easdale (1909-1995), probably best known for his score to “The Red Shoes.” Here’s the ballet music, conducted by Sir Thomas Beecham, no less.
