Roger David Edward Nichols (born 6 April 1939) is an English music scholar, critic, translator and author.
 After an early career as a university lecturer he became a full-time freelance writer in 1980.
 He is particularly known for his works on French music, including books about Claude Debussy, Maurice Ravel and the Parisian musical scene of the years after the First World War.
 Among his translations is the English version of the standard biography of Gabriel Fauré by Jean-Michel Nectoux.
 Nichols was decorated by the French authorities in 2006 for his contribution to French musical studies.
Alexis Emmanuel Chabrier (] ; January 18, 1841September 13, 1894) was a French Romantic composer and pianist.
 Although known primarily for two of his orchestral works, "España" and "Joyeuse marche", he left an important corpus of operas (including "L'étoile"), songs, and piano music.
 He was admired by composers as diverse as Debussy, Ravel, Richard Strauss, Satie, Schmitt, Stravinsky, and the group of composers known as Les six.
 Stravinsky alluded to "España" in his ballet "Petrushka"; Gustav Mahler called "España" "the beginnings of modern music" and alluded to the "Dance Villageoise" in the "Rondo Burleske" movement of his Ninth Symphony.
 Ravel wrote that the opening bars of "Le roi malgré lui" changed the course of harmony in France, Poulenc wrote a biography of the composer, and Richard Strauss conducted the first staged performance of Chabrier's incomplete opera "Briséïs".
Edward Higginbottom, DPhil (Oxon), BMus (Cantab), {'1': ", '2': ", '3': ", '4': "} is a music scholar, organist, choirmaster, conductor and choral composer.
 Most of his career has been as organist at New College Oxford, where he led their choir for more than 35 years and produced a large number of choral recordings.
Gabriel Urbain Fauré (] ; 12 May 1845 – 4 November 1924) was a French Romantic composer, organist, pianist and teacher.
 He was one of the foremost French composers of his generation, and his musical style influenced many 20th-century composers.
 Among his best-known works are his "Pavane", Requiem, nocturnes for piano and the songs "Après un rêve" and "Clair de lune".
 Although his best-known and most accessible compositions are generally his earlier ones, Fauré composed many of his most highly regarded works in his later years, in a more harmonically and melodically complex style.
Jean Gabriel Prosper Marie (8 January 1852, Paris – 29 August 1928, Puigcerdà, Girona, Spain) was a French romantic composer and conductor.
Faure is an Occitan family name meaning blacksmith, from Latin faber.
 It is pronounced differently from the accented surname Fauré, as in Gabriel Fauré, French composer and organist.
Cyril Bradley Rootham (5 October 1875 – 18 March 1938) was an English composer, educator and organist.
 His work at Cambridge University made him an influential figure in English music life.
 A Fellow of St John's College, where he was also organist, Rootham ran the Cambridge University Musical Society, whose innovative concert programming helped form English musical tastes of the time.
 One of his students was the younger composer Arthur Bliss, who valued his tuition in orchestration.
 Rootham's own compositions include two symphonies and several smaller orchestral pieces, an opera, chamber music, and many choral settings.
 Among his solo songs are some settings of verses by Siegfried Sassoon which were made in co-operation with the poet.
Nicholas Ludford (c. 1485 – c. 1557) was an English composer of the Tudor period.
 He is known for his festal masses, which are preserved in two early-16th-century choirbooks, the Caius Choirbook at Caius College, Cambridge, and the Lambeth Choirbook at Lambeth Palace, London.
 His surviving antiphons, all incomplete, are copied in the Peterhouse Partbooks (Henrican set).
 Ludford is well-known as being the composer of the only surviving cycle of Lady Masses, small-scale settings of the Ordinary and Propers in three parts to be sung in the smaller chapels of religious institutions on each day of the week.
 Ludford's composing career, which appears to have ended in 1535, is seen as bridging the gap between the music of Fayrfax and that of John Taverner (1495–1545).
 Music scholar David Skinner has called Ludford "one of the last unsung geniuses of Tudor polyphony".
 In his "Oxford History of English Music", John Caldwell observes of Ludford's six-part Mass and Magnificat "Benedicta" that it "is more a matter of astonishment that such mastery should be displayed by a composer of whom virtually nothing was known until modern times".
Simon Robert Napier-Bell (born 22 April 1939) is an English music manager, author and journalist.
 At different times, he has managed artists as diverse as the Yardbirds, John's Children, Marc Bolan, Japan, London, Ultravox, Boney M, Sinitta, Wham!
, Blue Mercedes, Alsou and Candi Staton, among others.
Jean Émile Auguste Bernard (28 November 1843 – 11 September 1902) was a French Romantic composer and organist.
