Bowen was not only a prolific composer he was also a pianist conductor Organist Violinist and Horn player. He premiered manyimportant works and his own music was featured many times at the Proms among other concert series and he had a host of critical champions. Sir Henry J Wood for instance believed Bowen had never received proper recognition andCamille Saint-Saens regarded him as the ‘finest of English composers’ early in his career.
