William Yeates Hurlstone (1876 – 1906) was an English composer who died young, before his potential could be realised. His teacher Sir Charles Villiers Stanford considered him the most talented of his pupils, above Ralph Vaughan Williams and Gustav Holst. In 1904 he was highly commended for Variations on a Swedish Air, performed at the first Patron's Concert. In 1905 he won first prize in the Cobbett competition for a single-movement String Quartet. One of his former teachers, Walford Davies, appointed him accompanist to the Bach Choir. In 1906, Hurlstone returned to the college as one of the youngest appointments to be Professor of Counterpoint, but died later that year of bronchial asthma, from which he had suffered all his life. The greater part of Hurlstone's body of work consists of works for chamber ensembles. Although they are of consistently high quality, none achieved any great fame, but the Bassoon Sonata has become particularly popular along with the Characteristic Pieces for Clarinet and Piano. Tragic life! i think this is a great composition, I had really fun playing it. It was my fourth attempt after first sight. (so it's reaaally pianistic)
