Music



Life

Edwin Yorke Bowen was the son of whisky-distiller at Crouch Hill, London. He studied with the famous pianist and pedagogue Tobias Matthay. Then he started a career as piano-virtuose. He studied composition with Frederick Corder. Influence of Brahms is recognisable in his works - but also that of Russian and French composers like Balakirev and Debussy. Echoes of the music of Ireland, Delius, Vaughan-Williams may also be heard in Bowen’s work. It is the fusion of styles that makes Bowen’s own sound world so remarkable.
