Being the offspring of Gustav Holst allowed Imogen the opportunity to embed herself at the centre of 20th Century British musical life. Set to a text by John Donne - a love poem named The Blossome - Imogen Holst clearly shows her debt to Benjamin Britten, to whom she was personal assistant for a number of years.
