Benjamin Britten
One of the greatest British composers of the 20th century, Benjamin Britten displayed astonishing maturity and mastery in his music at an early age, and went on to produce fluent and compelling works that have made a profound impact on countless listeners. While he is best known for his vocal music, particularly his operas, his instrumental works are of equal brilliance and affectiveness.
