Composers that were born in Great Britain, or gained the British nationality. See also under English, Scottish and Welsh composers.
It is sometimes hard to tell when to call a composer modern, as opposed to Romantic. In general you can say that the Moder Eara in music started around the year 1900. However, many composers continued to write pieces in a romantic fashion long after that.
