Edward Gregson
About the artist
Edward Gregson (b. 1945) is an English composer. Gregson was born in Sunderland, and studied composition at the Royal Academy of Music with Alan Bush, from 1963 to 1967. Better known in recent years for his concertos for various instruments, the main thread running through his early career was a series of innovative works for brass. His brass quintet (1967) won him one of the five composition prizes he received from the Royal Academy of Music, London.
