Frank Bridge (26 February 1879 – 10 January 1941) was an English composer, violist and conductor. Bridge was an accomplished violist player and conductor of professional standard. His compositions have been unfortunately underrated. He was a student of Charles Villiers Stanford and in turn he taught Benjamin Britten. Britten composed an orchestral work based on Bridge's themes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xu6hH95A0GY
