ALUN HODDINOTT [1929 – 2008] 

Alun Hoddinott was born in Bargoed, Glamorganshire, in 1929. His 

compositional talents developed early, and he won a university scholarship 

at the age of sixteen. After graduating from University College, Cardiff, he 

studied for some years with the Australian composer and pianist, Arthur 

Benjamin. He was awarded the Walford Davies prize for composition when 

he was twenty-four and achieved his first national success a year later when 

his Clarinet Concerto was given its first performance at the Cheltenham 

Festival by Gervase de Peyer and the Hallé Orchestra, under Sir John 

Barbirolli. 

In 1951 he was appointed lecturer in music at the Welsh College of Music and Drama; he later became 

lecturer at University College, Cardiff and was made Professor and Head of Department there in 1967. 

Among his many awards are the John Edwards Memorial Award, the Arnold Bax Medal for composers, 

the Hopkins Medal of the New York St David's Society and the CBE. He was an Honorary Member of 

the Royal Academy of Music, and a Fellow of the Royal Northern College of Music, the Royal Welsh 

College of Music & Drama and the Welsh Music Guild. 

Hoddinott has achieved a mastery of composition which embraces almost every musical medium. His 

strong creative urge, stimulated by a tremendous variety of eminent performers, is reflected in a 

substantial body of works. Essentially chromatic, his music often shows a dark Celtic intensity, 

manifested in his nocturnal slow movements. 

Alun Hoddinott's works have been broadcast, performed and recorded worldwide and his music has 

been released on CD by most major labels, including Chandos, Nimbus, Clarinet Classics, Decca, Sain 

and Warner Classics. 

Amongst his prodigious list of compositions there feature ten symphonies, three piano concertos, six 

operas (including Tower, the story of the successful battle to keep open the last remaining deep coal 

mine in Wales), thirteen piano sonatas and numerous choral, vocal and instrumental works. 

Alun Hoddinott died, after a long illness, on March 11th, 2008, aged 78.

ARWEL HUGHES [1919 – 1988] 

Arwel Hughes was born in Rhosllanerchrugog on the 25th of August 1909. He 

was educated at Ruabon Grammar School near Wrexham and at the Royal 

College of Music, where he studied with Vaughan Williams and C. H. Kitson. 

Upon completing his studies at the RCM, he became organist at the church of 

St Philip and St James, Oxford, and in 1935 returned to Wales to join the staff 

of the music department at the BBC. His duties included a great deal of 

conducting, and he directed the first performances of many works by Welsh 

composers, including Grace Williams, David Wynne and Alun Hoddinott. He 

was also called upon to compose, arrange and orchestrate music for live radio 

broadcasts. 

He was appointed as Head of Music of BBC Wales in 1965, a post he held with great esteem until his 

retirement in 1971. He was made an OBE in 1969 for his services to Welsh music and for organising the 

music for the Investiture of the Prince of Wales in the same year. From 1978 until 1986 he was Honorary 

Music Director of Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod. 

For many years Arwel Hughes conducted performances by the Welsh National Opera, and his own two 

operas, Menna, a tragedy based on a Welsh folk legend, and Serch yw'r Doctor, ‘Love's the Doctor', a 

comedy adapted from Molière, were produced by the company in 1954 and 1960. These works played 

an important role in the development of opera in Wales, works which demonstrate his attractive lyricism 

and melodic originality. 

He is most revered for his music for chorus and orchestra, a genre in which he excelled. The large-scale 

oratorios of Dewi Sant (Saint David) and Pantycelyn exemplify his imagination and technical competence 

and combine the early twentieth century British tradition with his original harmonic language. Gweddi 

(A Prayer) is a shorter work containing haunting melodies which encapsulate the spirit of the composer. 

From within there is a personality that is recognisably Celtic. 

The composer's orchestral writing includes a skilfully written Fantasia for Strings which has received 

many performances. From the 1940's there followed a stream of works for orchestra including Suite for 

Orchestra, Prelude for Orchestra, dedicated to the Youth of Wales, Anatiomaros and a Symphony. There 

are a quantity of songs and chamber music.

DAVID ARDITTI [b.1964] 

David Arditti was born in 1964, of mixed Jewish and Austrian 

descent, brought up on the south coast of England, and now lives 

in West Hampstead, London. After training for a scientific career, he 

eventually took up music full time and now composes, conducts, 

accompanies and teaches. 

He studied the piano with Peter Bithell of the Guildhall School of 

Music and Drama and has studied conducting with Neil Thompson, 

Gregory Rose and George Hurst, and composition with Paul 

Webster. 

He has performed many times with baritone William Revels in songs 

and song-cycles by Schumann, Burns, Vaughan Williams, Finzi, Haydn, Bax etc. at the Edinburgh Fringe 

Festival and elsewhere. He is a particular expert on English 19th century music and has performed songcycles 

by Sullivan and German with Alexander Anderson Hall and Carolyn Jackson (both of Scottish 

Opera) at the 1997 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. 

His compositions include songs and song-cycles, piano music, chamber music, an overture and a tonepoem 

for orchestra, choral music, including a Requiem and a Mass in C, and a film score. Performances 

have taken place all over Britain, and in August 1998 the first overseas performance took place in Maine, 

USA.

DAVID VAUGHAN THOMAS [1878-1934] 

David Vaughan Thomas, musician and composer, was born at Ystalyfera, 

Glamorgan. He attended Llandovery College and Exeter College, Oxford, 

where he gained a Musical Doctorate. 

He taught at Harrow School, Middlesex, before returning to Wales to devote 

himself to music. In 1927 he became overseas examiner for Trinity College, 

London, and travelled extensively in the Commonwealth. 

His chief works are Llyn y fan, A Song for St Cecilia's Day and The Bard; he 

wrote a large number of anthems and songs, in English and Welsh, arrangements of folk songs and 

hymns, and instrumental works, many of which remain unpublished.

DAVID WYNNE [1900-1983] 

David Wynne was born at Penderyn near Hirwaun, Glamorgan in 

1900 but the following year moved to Llanfabon near Cilfyndd. He 

left school at the age of twelve to work a 76-hour week at a local 

grocer for one-and-sixpence a week. On his fourteenth birthday he 

began working at the coalface of the Albion Colliery and continued 

until he was twenty-five, when he decided to enter for the Glamorgan 

Scholarship. He had read academic treatises by Prout and Kitson and 

been impressed by some orchestral concerts in Cardiff, where he 

began to study at University College, before moving on to Bristol 

University. 

From 1929 to 1961 he was music master at Lewis School, Pengam but 

had relatively little time to compose. The majority of his music was 

written during his semi-retirement. 

It was in 1944 that his String Quartet No.1 won the A.J. Clements Memorial Prize. It is a romantic work 

and has a folksy feel about it. It is eminently likeable and friendly. The Piano Sonata No.1 of 1947 shows 

influences of Bartok and Tippett and, at times, achieves brilliant excitement. The Piano Sonata No. 2 of 

1956 generates a purposeful, forward-moving drive, particularly with its vigorous rhythmic pulses. 

The period up to 1961 saw an impressive array of chamber music including a String Trio (1946), Piano 

Trio (1946), Sonatina for viola and piano (1946), two Sonatas for violin and piano (1948 and 1952), Sonata 

for viola and piano (1951), Sonatina for trumpet (1956) and one for trombone (1956) and a Clarinet 

Quintet (1959). His extensive output of chamber music amounts to a major potential contribution to 

British musical life and deserves to be taken up. 

From 1961 he taught composition at Cardiff College of Music and Drama and during this time turned to 

a type of serialism as an emancipation from tradition and tonality. His Piano Trio No.2 (1965) is a 

fascinating conflict between the twelve notes heard in serial fashion and freely atonal idiom. The Piano 

Sonata No. 4 (1966) is full of drama, tension and silences. Music for Harp (1966) is equally complex.

David Wynne also wrote some excellent light music. A Welsh Suite for orchestra (1961) is both simple 

and delightful, as are the two separate Cymric Rhapsodies of 1962. 

David Wynne died at Pencoed in 1983.

GRACE WILLIAMS [1906-1977] 

Grace Mary Williams, who was to become one of the most 

important and influential 20th century Welsh composers, was 

born at the stroke of midnight on February 19/20, 1906, in the 

coastal town of Barry. The eldest of three children, Grace was 

encouraged from an early age to pursue her interest in music. 

Both parents were schoolteachers who loved music. Her father 

William was a highly regarded amateur choral director who 

did not believe in teaching music to his children in the 

traditional manner of an exercise book and graded exams. 

Instead, he simply opened his extensive library of music scores 

to them, an act which enabled them to explore and discover 

on their own and which ultimately led Grace Williams to find 

her own highly individual music style. 

As a schoolgirl, she excelled in mathematics, music, and 

English and developed an abiding interest in French literature 

which she enjoyed throughout her life. She began to show ability in composing music, and, encouraged 

by her teacher Miss Rhyda Jones a former pupil of Walford Davies, Grace often sat on the beach at Cold 

Knap in Barry composing songs and dances. The sea would always be a powerful influence and 

inspiration in Grace Williams' life as a composer. 

In 1923, she entered University College, Cardiff on a scholarship, and while she found the social life at 

the school exciting, the music program was "deadly" for a would-be composer like Williams who found 

her enthusiasm stifled by academic exercises. After graduation in 1926, she moved to London to attend 

the Royal College of Music where one of her most important and influential teachers was composer 

Ralph Vaughan Williams, whom she called "Uncle Ralph." 

At the RCM, Grace joined several other gifted young women composers including Elizabeth Maconchy 

(1907-1994), Dorothy Gow (1893-1982), and Imogen Holst (1907-1984), the daughter of composer Gustav 

Holst. Encouraged by Vaughan Williams, the women met frequently to hear and criticize each other's 

work. 

In 1930, Grace Williams won the prestigious RCM Octavia Travelling Scholarship which enabled her to 

complete her training in Vienna with Egon Wellesz (1885-1974). Here she had the opportunity to indulge 

herself in the music of Wagner, Richard Strauss and Mahler and the late Austro-German Romantic 

tradition. Although she did not initially care for Mahler's music, it would later influence on her own 

compositions. 

By the age of 50, Grace Williams had found her own musical voice, one now influenced by the rhythms 

and cadences of old Welsh poetry and oratory, and penillion and ballad singing. With her music in 

greater demand, she now began receiving commissions. She was able to put aside much of the 

necessary busy work that had provided her with an income and devote more time to composition.

In the last 20 years of her life, Grace Williams composed music that marks her as a composer of 

importance in Wales. Her influence on younger Welsh composers was enormous, and she proved that 

it is possible to live in a small country and survive as an artist. In a land with a deeply rooted choral 

tradition, she helped place orchestral music on a new footing, and she brought to the concert hall a 

distinctly Welsh musical language in works like her Penillion, Ballads for Orchestra, Carillons, Symphony 

No. 2, the Trumpet Concerto and Castell Caernarfon. 

Grace Williams did not neglect the vocal music that is the lifeblood of the Welsh people and left some 

90 settings for voice, many with orchestra. Her Choral Suite: The Dancers was one of her first successful 

vocal works and received its premiere by Joan Sutherland singing solo with the Penarth Ladies Choir in 

1954! Williams had an affinity for vocal writing and over the years produced large scale choral works 

like the haunting Ave Maris Stella and her choral masterpiece Missa Cambrensis. In her song settings 

with orchestra, she selected a broad range of poets from ancient and Medieval Welsh texts to Gerard 

Manley Hopkins, Siegfried Sassoon, D.H. Lawrence and the American poet May Sarton. 

For her contributions to music, she was offered the OBE in 1966, but she turned it down. A good 

performance of her music meant more to her than a decoration. On her 70th birthday in 1976, she 

received tributes from admirers throughout the world, and the Welsh BBC broadcast a program of her 

music. Her major orchestra works had been recorded. 

Three months later, she experienced the first signs of what would prove to be a fatal cancer. Surgery 

and radiation therapy did not improve her condition and left her debilitated. 

Grace Williams died on February 10 just nine days before her seventy-first birthday.

HENRY WALFORD DAVIES [1869-1941] 

Sir Henry Walford Davies, KCVO, OBE was born in Oswestry on the Welsh border, 

seventh of nine children of John Whitridge Davies and Susan, née Gregory, and 

the youngest of four surviving sons. His middle name Walford was his maternal 

grandmother's maiden name; he later dropped his first name Henry, becoming 

generally known as Walford Davies. 

John Whitridge Davies was a leading figure in the local musical scene, playing the 

flute and the cello and leading the choir at the Congregational church, Christ 

Church, where his brother was organist, and he brought up his family to make 

music together. Performances of oratorios by Handel and others by Henry Leslie's Oswestry choral 

society were reviewed warmly in the London Musical Times. 

Walford's brothers Charlie and Harold were, successively, organists at Christ Church succeeding their 

uncle, Charlie from the age of eleven. Charlie died young after emigrating to Australia. Harold also 

emigrated to Australia, where he took the first musical doctorate from an Australian university and 

ultimately achieved considerable fame as Professor of Music at Adelaide University and Principal of the 

Elder Conservatorium. Tom, the eldest, followed a family tradition by entering the ministry. 

Walford Davies grew up, like his siblings, playing any instrument he could lay his hands on, often in an 

informal band with his brothers, cousins and friends, but it was as a singer that he was first noticed and 

entered, against misgivings from his nonconformist family, for a choristership at St. George's, Windsor. 

In this he was successful, and from the age of twelve he was singing fourteen services a week as well as 

attending school. Here he came under the influence of Walter Parratt, a leader in the late Victorian 

organ renaissance, and Randall Davidson, as Dean of Windsor. 

Davies studied under, and was assistant to, Parratt for five years before entering the Royal College of 

Music in 1890 where he studied under Hubert Parry and Charles Villiers Stanford. He remained at the 

College as a teacher of counterpoint from 1895, one of his pupils being Rutland Boughton. During this 

time he held a number of organist posts in London, culminating in his appointment in 1898 as organist 

of the Temple Church where he remained until 1917. In that year he was appointed the first director of 

music to the newly created Royal Air Force which led to him writing the RAF March Past. 

In 1919, Walford Davies was made professor of music at Aberystwyth. He subsequently did much to 

promote Welsh music, becoming chairman of the Welsh National Council of Music, a forerunner of the 

Welsh Music Guild. From 1927 he was organist at St. George's Chapel, Windsor. 

In 1924, Walford Davies became Professor of Music at Gresham College, London: a part-time position 

giving public lectures. From the 1920s, he also made a series of records of lectures, which led to him 

being employed by the BBC to give radio broadcasts on classical music under the title Music and the 

Ordinary Listener. These lasted from 1926 until the outbreak of World War II in 1939, and Davies became 

a well-known and popular radio personality 

Walford Davies was knighted in 1922 and, following the death of Sir Edward Elgar in 1934, was appointed 

Master of the King's Music. He died in 1941 in Bristol and is buried in the grounds of Bristol Cathedral.

JAYSON MACKIE [b.1975] 

Jayson Mackie was born In Cardiff in 1975 and started piano lessons at 10, 

guitar at 13 and flute at 14. Started composing at 15 whilst studying GSCE 

music. Played flute in South Glamorgan Flute and Clarinet Ensemble and 

flute and clarinet in South Glamorgan Schools' Jazz Orchestra. 

Continued interest and development in composition through A-level 

study resulted in the successful publication of two collections of 

educational pieces – Jazz Suite for four flutes (1991) and Holiday Music for 

flute and piano (1991) in 1992 at the age of 17. These works were written 

for GCSE and A-level music respectively and published by Spartan Press 

Music Publishers Ltd where the Jazz Suite has become a best- seller. He 

began private teaching of piano, flute, music theory in 1994 to present and occasional work experience 

teaching music and playing piano for productions in various local primary schools. 

He was accepted for entry into Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama to study composition with 

Gareth Davies in 1997. This led to many successful performances of works, a Wind Quintet (1997) chosen 

to represent the college at the Inter Conservatoire Composers Consortium held at the RNCM in 1998 

and cash scholarship awards for high compositional achievement in 1998,1999 and 2003. In 2000 

received a joint Arts Council / National Lottery commission with Roshanak Nasehi to write music for 

children's play The Big Stink with libretto by Vivian French. Awarded a distinction for LWCMD 

Performer's Licentiate Diploma in July 2000.

Raymond. Further successful performances of works continued. Weather Notes from Baby Earth (2003) 

– a tone poem depicting ancient weather patterns for orchestra was chosen to represent the RWCMD 

in a composers’ forum at BBC Studios in Cardiff, in a workshop performance and recording by BBC 

National Orchestra of Wales in March 2003.

KEITH TIPPETT [1947-2020] 

Keith Tippett left Bristol in 1967 and came to prominence in London in the 

late 1960s with his Sextet and his astonishing 50-piece ensemble Centipede. 

He is widely recognised as one of the most distinctive and radical pioneers in 

contemporary jazz. 

From solo performances through a myriad of duos, trios, quartets, sextets 

and septets to the 21-piece orchestra The Ark and the never-to-be-forgotten 

Centipede, he showed a discipline, dedication and creative energy 

unparalleled in contemporary music in Britain. 

Recognition came, too, from the world of contemporary ‘classical' music. Not 

only did Tippett play a crucial role in opening the Dartington International 

Summer School to jazz and improvisation, but he composed several pieces 

for new music groups such as the Composers Ensemble with Mary Wiegold and recorded with the 

Balanescu String Quartet. 

His ground-breaking introduction, as founder, musician and artistic director, of the Rare Music Club 

series of concerts in his native Bristol (in which jazz, contemporary ‘classical' and roots/ethnic music 

performers share the same bill) gave further emphasis to his position as a leading figure in the 

contemporary music movement in Great Britain.

MERVYN BURTCH [1929-2015] 

Mervyn Burtch was one of Wales' most distinguished composers, a 

Fellow of both the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama and the 

Welsh Music Guild and the recipient of the 1990 John Edwards Memorial 

Award for his contribution to music in Wales. His output covers all genres 

from orchestral music to a series of twelve string quartets. He had a 

particular interest in music for the voice, and his choral works have been 

heard all over the world. He wrote nine operas, seen in the UK, Ireland, 

Canada, Germany, South Africa, and Mexico, and in addition, he 

composed a series of 12 short operas for the Welsh Schools Opera 

Project, and incidental music for many plays, from Shakespeare to 

Brecht. 

His music has been published by Chappell, Curiad, Grittiths, Novello, Oriana Publications and The Welsh 

Music Information Centre. Recordings of his works have been issued by Marco Polo (Welsh Classical 

Favourites), Herald, and Black Mountain Records. His music has been broadcast in Wales, England, 

Australia, Canada, The Czech Republic, Eire, Hungary, New Zealand, and Portugal.

Throughout his career, Mervyn Burtch included in his compositional activities projects that reached out 

to new and extended audiences, from a choral series for young children to a commission from the 

famous Pendyrus Male Voice Choir as the centrepiece of their 1995 tour of the U.S.A. 

This culminated in the series of operas written for KidsOp, using child and professional adult forces, that 

have achieved international success, and he was the first Welsh composer to have an opera performed 

at the celebrated Wexford Festival Opera in Eire. His involvement in the KidsOp project led to close ties 

with Canada, and he took part in productions, and coached, at The Banff Centre and other venues in 

Alberta, as well as assisting in the exchange of both child and adult musicians and singers between 

Canada and Wales. 

Mervyn also taught extensively. After being Head of Music first at Bargoed Grammar Technical School, 

and then Head of Music at Lewis Girls' School, Ystrad Mynach, he joined the staff of the Welsh College 

of Music and Drama. He became Head of the Performance Course at the College in 1984 until his 

retirement in 1989.

MICHAEL STEWART [b.1965] 

Dr. Michael Stewart holds a Doctor of Musical Arts in Music Composition 

from the University of South Carolina, a Master of Arts degree in Trumpet 

Performance from Eastern Illinois University, and a Bachelor of Music degree 

in Jazz Studies from the University of Akron (OH). Although he primarily 

writes for jazz ensembles from 7 to 17 players and various brass ensembles, 

his compositions also cover a far-reaching range of styles and genres. 

He has also turned his attentions to electronic publishing formats, with over 

30 titles (including "Trumpet Rounds & Melodic Duets," "Military Bugle Calls," 

and "Beginning Jazz for Young Trumpeters") in Apple's iBookstore of titles 

for the Apple iPad, and a similar number in the Amazon's Kindle format 

(including two volumes of Christmas duets, "Twelve Wedding Duets" for 

trumpet and trombone, and a collection of trumpet duets on original melodies and folk songs). 

In 2013, he also released a two-DVD documentary, "The Big Bands of FitzGerald's," covering the jazz 

big bands of historic FitzGerald's Nightclub in Berwyn, IL. 

Five times Dr. Stewart has had premieres at the annual International Trumpet Guild Conference, and he 

directed the Chicago Brass Choir in concert at the 2001 event at the University of Evansville (IN). The 

summer of 1997 saw the recording and release of his first compact disc, entitled Chorales & Imitations, 

a collection of chamber brass music. Featured as performers are members of the Chicago Brass Choir. 

Dr. Stewart's arrangements are also featured on the 1999 CD by the Chicago Brass Choir, "Pictures in 

Brass." His work for solo French horn and brass choir, "Rhapsody," was commissioned in 1997 by the 

International Horn Society.

MORFYDD LLWYN OWEN [1891-1918] 

One of the greatest musical talents yet seen in Wales, Morfydd Owen was 

born at Treforest in South Wales in 1891. Both her father, an accountant, and 

her mother were accomplished amateur musicians, and Morfydd showed 

great musical talent at an early age. Whilst still in her teens she performed 

professionally as soloist in the Grieg piano concerto. 

She studied composition privately with Dr David Evans for two years before 

winning a scholarship to Cardiff University and being admitted formally to his 

composition class. Her first published work appeared in 1909. Altogether, 

twenty of Morfydd's compositions were premièred at student recitals in 

Cardiff. Upon graduation, she proceeded to the Royal Academy in London 

where her impact was swift and impressive. Under the guidance of her 

professor, Frederick Corder, Morfydd generated a stream of new music which dominated showcase 

programmes for young composers and elicited unanimous praise from the review columns of London 

newspapers. Morfydd also accumulated a steady stream of scholarships and awards, including the blueriband 

award - the Charles Lucas Silver Medal for composition, for her Nocturne in D flat for large 

orchestra, described at the time as the most original student work ever heard at that Institution. Her 

record of distinction at the Academy is as yet unequalled. 

Morfydd was appointed to the teaching staff at the Academy and began what promised to be a brilliant 

career as both singer and composer. Tragically, this promise was to be cut short by her death from 

appendicitis a month short of her 27th birthday in 1918. The previous year, she had married the famous 

psycho-analyst Dr Ernest Jones. 

In just over 10 years, she produced some 180 compositions, instrumental, choral, and orchestral: and at 

the heart of her work, some one hundred songs. Surprisingly for a Welsh composer of that time, sacred 

music formed only a small part of her output - 22 hymn tunes and a few anthems. However, she remains 

best known in Wales for her stunning setting of the Welsh hymn Gweddi y Pechadur (The Sinner's 

Prayer). 

Morfydd Owen was a beautiful and romantic young woman, and her emotions are expressed freely in 

her music. Many of her works are advanced and innovative, and often astonishingly beautiful. As a 

singer herself, she composed with an especial understanding of the mezzo-soprano voice.

Peter Reynolds was born in 1958 and studied in Cardiff where 

he lived and worked. During the 1980s he received several bursaries 

to attend the Dartington Summer School where he studied with Peter 

Maxwell Davies, Morton Feldman and Gordon Crosse and was 

awarded the Michael Tippett Award for Composition in 1986.

in Monmouthshire. 

He launched a series of free foyer concerts at Wales Millennium Centre, with some 500 performances 

per year between 2004 and 2007 and was composer-in-residence with the Young Composer of Dyfed 

from 2010 to 2013. 

His music has been played by performers including Bingham String Quartet, James Clapperton, 

Icebreaker, the Guildhall Strings, Sterling String Quartet, Sharon McKinley, Charlie Barber + Band, Carlo 

Rizzi, Lesley Garret and his own PM Music Ensemble. His music has been broadcast on Radio 3, BBC 

Wales and BBC Television. In 1993 his opera The Sands of Time was recognised by the Guinness Book 

of Records as a world record for the world's shortest opera at 3 minutes and 34 seconds. 

Peter taught composition at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama, where he was very highly 

regarded, until his untimely death in 2016.
