Shoreham-by-Sea, Sussex (England); 1972) English composer of the generation which followed Stanford, Elgar , Parry, etc (in other words: roughly contemporary with Vaughan Williams , Granville Bantock, Donald Tovey, Frank Bridge and Samuel Coleridge-Taylor; older than Arthur Bliss, Walton , etc). Brian is now best known (almost notorious) for his "Gothic" Symphony (Symphony No. 1; 1919-27), generally regarded as the largest symphony ever written. Noone seems to be absolutely certain the exact forces required to perform the work, although the minimum number of musicians required is generally considered to be more than a thousand (around 200 players in the orchestra itself; plus 4 brass bands and 4 large mixed choirs). For all this heavy artillery, the "Gothic" is an amazingly lithe creation, a virtuoso musical journey in six movements from the darkness (of war?) into light (the subtitle refers to the Gothic period of art and architecture, not Bram Stokeresque horror). (Anyone who has seen the documentary "The Grateful and the Dead" on the Rex Foundation will have seen some amazing home video footage of conductor Ondrej Lenard surrounded by what looks like half of Bratislava as he leads them through the great choral finale of the "Gothic" Symphony. At least two assistant conductors are clearly visible. Absolutely incredible)

B The English composer Havergal Brian, in a long career, made little concession to the practical economies of performance in a series of orchestral compositions on a grand scale, including 32 symphonies, many of which were for long denied professional performance. The massive Gothic Symphony, the first of these, was written between 1919 and 1927 and includes a setting of the Te Deum. The last symphony was written in 1968. Havergal Brian's works are now at last winning a hearing, after earlier neglect. His musical language is complex but tonal and however eccentric he is never less than impressive.

    Extractions: DAVID J BROWN The Havergal Brian Society exists to promote public knowledge of the work of William Havergal Brian (1876-1972) and, to this end, to support and sponsor its publication, performance, and recording. Brian was born on 29 January 1876 into a working-class Potteries family in Dresden, Staffordshire. He gained his first musical experience in church choirs and after leaving school at the age of 12 he was in some demand as a church organist. He learned the violin and 'cello, and played in local bands and orchestras. A local teacher gave him a thorough theoretical grounding, but he was virtually self-taught in composition. Nevertheless he rapidly acquired an invincible desire to be a composer and in thefirst decade of the 20th century began to make a name for himself. Some of his music was admired by Elgar, works of his were performed by conductors such as Henry Wood and Thomas Beecham, and for a number of years he and his family were supported by a wealthy Staffordshire businessman so that Brian would be free to compose. All this came to an abrupt end, however, just before the outbreak of World War 1, when various personal crises forced him to leave his home and family. In London he failed to consolidate such musical reputation as he had gained, and for many years he supported a growing second family with a series of menial jobs, often in some poverty.

He was largely self-taught, and noted for his vast musical output, which includes 32 symphonies . Brian grew up in a working-class community in the pottery-producing region of the north Midlands, with little opportunity for a musical education. Despite this, he composed throughout his life, although very little of the huge amount of music he produced was performed during his lifetime. He began by working in a clerical post in the timber industry but for a while, with the support of an anonymous patron, was able to devote his time to composition. However, his career as a composer was disrupted by World War I: discharged from the army due to injury, he took various clerical posts, and acted as a music copyist, critic, and editor, most notably as assistant editor for the journal Musical Opinion from 1920. His music was championed by
