Havergal Brian (born William Brian; 29 January 1876 – 28 November 1972) was an English composer. He is best known for having composed 32 symphonies (an unusually high total for a 20th-century composer), most of them late in his life. His best-known work is his Symphony No. 1, The Gothic, which calls for some of the largest orchestral forces demanded by a conventionally structured concert work. He also composed five operas and a number of other orchestral works, as well as songs, choral music and a small amount of chamber music. Brian enjoyed a period of popularity earlier in his career and rediscovery in the 1950s, but public performances of his music have remained rare and he has been described as a cult composer. He continued to be extremely productive late into his career, composing lar

  • 威廉·「哈維格」·布萊恩(William "Havergal" Brian,1876年1月29日-1972年11月28日)是二十世紀英國多產作曲家。他一生共創作了32首交響曲,二百多首各類型的作品,其中超過一半的交響曲更是在80歲以後才寫成的。但遺憾的是無論他在世或死後,他的作品被演奏的機會並不多,就連他最出名的作品《歌德交響曲》,也因為規模過大,由寫成至今天亦只有不足五次的公演機會。 「哈維格」並非布萊恩的原名,是他借用了英國一名詩人海弗格爾(Frances Ridley Havergal)的姓氏,後來這個借來的名就成為他日後創時的名稱。 (zh)

  • Havergal Brian, nato William Brian (29 gennaio 1876 – 28 novembre 1972), è stato un compositore inglese di musica classica. Brian acquisì quasi un'aura di leggenda al momento della sua riscoperta, negli anni cinquanta e sessanta, per il gran numero di sinfonie scritte: durante la sua vita ne aveva portate a termine 32, un numero insolitamente elevato per qualsiasi compositore dopo Haydn e Mozart.
