Choral Composer
OT many English composers receive knighthoods, but Sir Granville Bantock (whose picture appears above) was one of the fortunate ones to be honoured by the King. He has had an interesting life, which began in London in ‘1868. After studies at the Royal Academy he started a paper called " The New Quarterly Musical Review," then toured the world as a conductor to a theatrical company, married a poetess, Helen von Schweitzer, and in 1934 became Chairman of the Corporation of ‘Trinity College, London. A recital of Bantock’s songs will be given by Audrey Holdgate, soprano, at 9.28 p.m. on Sunday, August 25, from 3YA Christchurch.
