He studied in Nottingham and gained his Doctorate in 1994 from Keele University after studying with George Nicholson. His composition is influenced by world music and rock. He has won several competitions. His best-known work is the aggressive work for orchestra "''Fractured Vistas''" from 1995. Played and broadcast in various countries and shortlisted in the Lutoslawski Prize in 1997. In 2000 he began working on his concerto ''The Death of Angels: A Concerto for Violin and Orchestra'', based on John Milton's ''Paradise Lost''. This work was premiered and broadcast by the BBC in February 2003. His 45-minute Piano Concerto took four years to compose between 2002 to 2006 but remains unperformed to date but he has always stated that he feels it is his best work. After three years research, experimentation with Sound Files and electronic principles and historic research into the Eastern Roman Empire he completed his "Symphony No.2: Byzantium" in 2009 which was released on the CDP label in Britain. Further research and experimentation produced the ''"Anglo Saxon Trilogy"'' based on Anglo Saxon culture and language. Both works are for fixed media (CD). In April 2013 a 50th birthday concert at the Birmingham Conservatoire of Music showcased some of his more recent chamber music to great critical praise. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Andrew Glover (composer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
