First A native of London, York Bowen, enrolled at the Royal Academy of Music at the age of only fourteen as a student of composition and piano, and won distinction in both.

His own instrument has naturally been generously treated, with three concertos and many smaller pieces, but he has done notable work for the orchestra too.
