Richard Lambert, born in Bath in the English West Country in 1951, grew up with the sounds of organ and brass among his earliest musical experiences: he played cornet and trumpet as a boy and was soon taking organ lessons in Bath Abbey. His own compositions for brass and organ - many of them written to mark special occasions in the lives of friends and acquaintances - range in mood from the tender and intimate to the bold and heraldic, in a language downstream from Walton and Poulenc.
