In this study of her father's music, the author discusses Holst's pieces of the early 1890s, the musical consequences of his holiday in Algeria in 1908, problems of performance in The Planets, and editing Holst's music. The volume also includes a list of important dates in Holst's life, a list of his published work, and a bibliography.
