Anthony Burgess is best known for his novels, but he was also a talented and prolific composer who wrote music in many genres and styles: symphonies, concertos, musicals, chamber music, film soundtracks, songs and much more.

The exhibition The Music of Anthony Burgess takes seven of his most important works as a starting point to explore his fascinating musical career.
