Sir Granville Bantock (August 7, 1868 - October 16, 1946), was a British composer of classical music. Bantock was born in London. A close friend of fellow composer Havergal Brian, he was professor of music at the University of Birmingham from 1908 to 1934 (in which post he succeeded Sir Edward Elgar). In 1934, he was elected Chairman of the Corporation of Trinity College of Music in London. He was knighted in 1930. Wikipedia

30 works of his were listed (the 1946 first edition listed only one Bantock recording that did not survive the revision) and all these, except three, were recordings from the Paxton catalogue. www.musicweb.uk.net/classrev/2000/sept00/bantock.htm
