The outstanding English composer working in the mid-20th century, Benjamin Britten won a significant international reputation, whilst remaining thoroughly English in inspiration. Britten’s compositions appeal to all ages, from the delightful “Simple Symphony”, composed for a school orchestra, and “The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra” written for an educational film, to the haunting” Serenade for Tenor, Horn and String” and the intense anti-war statement of his “War Requiem”.
