John Garth
**John Garth** was an 18th-century English composer and cellist whose work bridged the Baroque and Classical eras. Hailing from Durham, he’s best known for his inventive cello concertos and keyboard sonatas, which blend technical flair with melodic warmth. A contemporary of composers like Carl Friedrich Abel, Garth carved out a niche with his accessible yet sophisticated style, often performed at lively public concerts in London. His *Six Concertos for the Violoncello* and *Accompanied Keyboard Sonatas* (Opp. 2 & 4) showcase his knack for spotlighting instruments in dialogue, making him a standout figure in England’s instrumental music scene. Though not a household name today, his contributions to cello repertoire and chamber music keep him on the radar of early music enthusiasts.
