(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Gwyn Pritchard is a British composer, ensemble and festival director, and teacher. Life Pritchard was born in Yorkshire and brought up on a farm near Marlborough, Wiltshire. His parents were not musicians, but his family inherited a piano when he was 11 and he began to teach himself to play and to compose. At 13 he also took up the cello, developing quickly, and in 1966 he was accepted to the Royal Scottish Academy in Glasgow to study the instrument with Joan Dickson, and composition with Dr Frank Spedding. After graduating he worked briefly as Director of Music at Salisbury Cathedral School, then as a freelance cellist in London. In 1971 he was employed by the BBC, firstly as an orchestral cellist, and later as the subject of a documentary film. In the late 1970s performances of his Objects in Space and Mercurius at London’s South Bank attracted national and international attention. Since then he has worked as a freelance composer, ensemble and festival director, and a teacher.
