John Foulds is a Manchester man, and at one time played the cello in the Halle Orchestra. In London he has had an extensive experience as a conductor and as an organiser of concerts. He has written a large number of compositions ; songs, piano pieces, chamber music, and orchestral works. One of his most ambitious works is A World Requiem ', which was specially composed in remembrance of the War.
It is also interesting to note that he was one of the early experimenters in the use of a quarter-tone system, and in this respect anticipated the inventions of several Central European composers.
