Antony Hopkins
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the composer. For the actor, see Anthony Hopkins.
Antony Hopkins CBE (born 21 March 1921) is an English composer, pianist, conductor, and radio broadcaster.
Born in London under the name Ernest William Antony Reynolds (it was changed in childhood to Hopkins), his works include the operas Lady Rohesia (1947) (based on the Ingoldsby Legends of sixteenth-century England), The Man from Tuscany, and Three's Company (1953); the ballet Café des Sports; and Scena for soprano and strings (which was later arranged for three solo voices and full orchestra).[1]
He has written extensively for films, including Here Come the Huggetts (1948), The Pickwick Papers(1952), Cast a Dark Shadow (1955), and Billy Budd (1962).[2]. In the 1970s he revived the long forgotten oratorio Ruth (infamous as 'the Worst Oratorio in the World') by English composer George Tolhurst; this was heard again in 2009 on BBC Radio 3 programme "The Choir".
However, he is perhaps best-known for his books of musical analysis and, particularly, for his radio programmes Talking About Music broadcast for many years by the BBC.
He was appointed a CBE in 1976.
