John Luke Rose
John Luke Rose (born 19 July 1933) is a British composer of classical music.[1]
Rose was born in Northwood Hills, England. After finishing at Chislehurst and Sidcup Grammar School, he was educated at the University of London and the Trinity College of Music.[2] He received his PhD in music in 1963 on a work about the musical language of Richard Wagner.[1]
After his studies John Luke Rose worked as a lecturer at the Trinity College of Music, the University of Oxford and of London, but mainly focussed on composing.[1] Still in his study years he received the Royal Philharmonic Society Composition Prize in the consecutive years 1957 and 1958.[3] His orchestral works were championed by conductor Bryden Thomson and performed with the BBC Symphony Orchestra.[1][4]
John Luke Rose should not be confused with British composer John Rose (born 1928 in London).[2]
