Timeline

1931

Anthony J. Hedges (5 March 1931 – 19 June 2019) was an English composer, the son of children's writer Sidney Hedges.

Hedges was born in Bicester, Oxfordshire, and studied music at Keble College Oxford, where his tutors included Thomas Armstrong.

1955

While on National Service for two years at Catterick (from 1955) he was a member of the Band of the Royal Signals Regiment.

1957

From 1957 he was a music lecturer at The Royal Scottish Academy of Music in Glasgow, and from 1962 a lecturer at The University of Hull (1962–94) where he was awarded an Hon.DMus.

During his time in Glasgow he also contributed regular reviews and articles on music to The Glasgow Herald, The Scotsman, The Guardian and The Daily Telegraph.

While at Hull he met the poet Philip Larkin.

Anthony Hedges lived in Beverley with his wife Joy where he supported the Beverley Chamber Music Festival and set up his own publishing company, Westfield Music.

1967

Hedges is often regarded primarily as a light-music composer due to the large number of recordings of his light orchestral music, such as the Four Miniature Dances (1967) and the popular Kingston Sketches of 1969.

But such works in fact represent only a small portion of his overall output.

His orchestral works include two symphonies, a Sinfonia Concertante, concertinos for flute, horn, trumpet, bassoon, and the Variations on a theme of Rameau.

There are numerous pieces for chorus and orchestra, including the dramatic cantata Bridge for the Living, (for which Philip Larkin wrote the text), The Temple of Solomon (a Huddersfield Choral Society commission), The Lamp of Liberty, (commissioned by Hull Philharmonic Orchestra for the Wilberforce bicentennary), I Sing the Birth (Canticles for Christmas) together with a number of large-scale works for massed junior choirs and orchestra which have been widely performed.

Hedges' chamber-music output was also extensive, from solo to ensemble works and his vocal compositions equally numerous and varied.

He also published a considerable amount of educational music.

1990

Hull Central Library established an archive collection of his compositions and working sketches in 1990.

2019

After his death in June 2019 his daughter Fiona Hedges acted as executor, owner and promoter of his music.
