Arthur Duff
Arthur Knox Duff (13 March 1899 – 23 September 1956) was an Irish composer and conductor, best known for his short orchestral pieces such as the Handel-inspired ''Echoes of Georgian Dublin''. His career also encompassed senior positions in the Irish Army School of Music and in the music department of Radio Éireann. ==Early years and education== Duff was born in Dublin to John William Duff, a native of King's County (now County Offaly), and his wife Annie Kathleen Hickey. Duff was a chorister in Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin and studied at the Royal Irish Academy of Music under Charles Herbert Kitson. He completed his education at Trinity College, Dublin where he obtained his primary degree in arts and music. In 1942, he was awarded a doctorate in music following an examination.〔(Joseph J. Ryan, "Duff, Arthur Knox", ''Dictionary of Irish Biography'' ), retrieved 20 July 2011〕 Duff was initially drawn to the ministry of the Church of Ireland but abandoned his religious studies before the final examination.〔''The Irish Times'', "Dr. Arthur Duff dies in Dublin hospital", 24 September 1956〕
