Laurence Crane

About the artist

Laurence Crane (born 1961 in Oxford, UK) is a composer of contemporary classical music. He studied at Nottingham University with Peter Nelson and Nigel Osborne. He is closely associated with the ensemble Apartment House, for whom he has written Riis (1996) and John White in Berlin (2003). He has written a considerable amount of piano music. Pianists who have performed his work include Michael Finnissy, Thalia Myers and John Tilbury. A 1995 Gramophone review described Crane's music as "as minimal as you can get, and irresistibly droll".
