| 释义 |
Jean Hamilton was educated at Somerville College, Oxford. She married John Maud, later to become Lord Redcliffe-Maud, on 20 June 1932 in Oxford.[2] On 1 July of that year, they sailed for South Africa and she kept a diary of her experiences in Africa that was later published in book form. Hamilton was a professional pianist. There is now a "John and Jean Redcliffe Maud prize" in the Contemporary Piano Competition at the Royal College of Music in London.[3] Jean Hamilton co-founded the University College Musical Society with her then fiancé, John Maud.[4] The first concert organised by the society was held in a lecture room at 90 High Street, one of the college-owned houses, on 1 June 1930. Hamilton accompanied the tenor singer Steuart Wilson. The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra, opus 34, is a 1946 musical composition by Benjamin Britten that in composer's words "is affectionately inscribed to the children of John and Jean Maud: Humphrey, Pamela, Caroline and Virginia, for their edification and entertainment." She was the Master's wife at University College, Oxford from 1963 to 1976.[1] She performed piano recitals and appeared in the Univ Revue there. She retired to live on the Woodstock Road in North Oxford with her husband and died on 6 November 1993.[5] Jean Redcliffe-Maud is buried in Holywell Cemetery, Oxford, with her husband. Books
