About This Item
Dunedin: Otago U. P., 2008. 1st edition. As New. octavo. softback with french flaps 247pp., colour & b/w plates, text ills., notes, bibliog., index, ÔThe Triad was founded in 1893 and ran into the late 1920s. For its first 22 years it was published in NZ, but in 1915 publication was transferred to Sydney where it was re-launched as an Australasian magazine; it offered well-informed coverage of cultural activities local & international. Notoriously outspoken, Baeyertz was feared and respected as a critic. His music criticism was particularly intelligent and rigourous, making no concessions to personality or amateur or professional status. His later co-editor, the self-styled 'decadent' Frank Morton, was equally candid. This is an engaging biography of a fascinating man which also throws new light on a long-neglected period of New Zealand's cultural pastÕ
