English arts critic and author (born 1927–2013)

Trevor Noël Goodwin (25 December 1927 – 27 March 2013) was an English music critic, dance critic and author who specialized in classical music and ballet.[2] Described as having a “rare ability to write about music and dance with equal distinction”,[3] for 22 years Goodwin was Chief music and dance critic for the Daily Express. He held criticism posts at many English newspapers, including the News Chronicle, Truth and The Manchester Guardian among others; from 1978 to 1998 he also reviewed performances for The Times. Goodwin wrote an early history of the Scottish Ballet and was coauthor for two books: London Symphony: Portrait of an Orchestra with Hubert J. Foss and a Knight at the Opera with Geraint Evans.

Life and career[edit]

Trevor Noël Goodwin was born on 25 December 1927 in Fowey, Cornwall, England, UK.[3][n 1]

Other publications Goodwin wrote for include: the New York Herald-Tribune (London dance critic), the Musical Courier, Opera News, Dancing Times, Dance and Dancers (music editor in 1964, associate editor in 1972), Music and Musicians (executive editor from 1963 to 1971).[3]

The Times described Goodwin as having a “rare ability to write about music and dance with equal distinction”.[3] Reflecting on his role as a music critic, Goodwin said:

“As a music critic in daily journalism for mass circulation my purpose, as I see it, is first to stimulate enthusiasm over the widest possible range of music and then to discriminate in matters of taste and standards.
