Bennett, William Sterndale, 1816-1875
William Sterndale Bennett was an English composer, conductor, and teacher of music. He wrote most of his best compositions in Leipzig, where he befriended Mendelssohn and Schumann. He later curtailed composition in favor of education, first as Professor of Music at Cambridge and later as Principal of the Royal Academy of music; he was also conductor of the London Philharmonic. His piano music remains a prime example of Victorian musical tastes.
