Herbert Howells
Herbert Howells (1892–1983) was a British composer best known for his choral and organ music, particularly his beautifully expressive sacred works. Born in Gloucestershire, England, he studied at the Royal College of Music and was influenced by composers like Ralph Vaughan Williams. Howells is especially famous for his Anglican church music, including his "Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis" settings and the deeply moving "Requiem." His lush harmonies and rich textures made his music a staple in British cathedral choirs. Beyond sacred music, he also composed orchestral and chamber works, leaving a lasting impact on 20th-century classical music.
