Afterwords: Anthony Burgess

In later life, the novelist Anthony Burgess said he wished people would think of him as "a musician who writes novels, instead of a novelist who writes music on the side".

As well as writing about music - most famously in A Clockwork Orange and his non-fiction book This Man and Music - there are over 300 works composed over a 50-year span, from preludes and fugues for keyboard via a 'flatulent fanfare' for four tubas (dedicated to an eminent - and scornful - music critic) to orchestral works.
