John Foulds
John Herbert Foulds (; 2 November 1880 – 25 April 1939) was an English cellist and composer of classical music. He was largely self-taught as a composer, and belongs among the figures of the English Musical Renaissance.A successful composer of light music and theatre scores, he directed his principal creative energies into more ambitious and exploratory works that were particularly influenced by Indian music. Suffering a setback after the decline in popularity of his ''World Requiem'' (1919–1921), he left London for Paris in 1927, and eventually travelled to India in 1935 where, among other things, he collected folk music, composed pieces for traditional Indian instrument ensembles, and worked in radio and became Director of All India Radio in Delhi in 1937.
Foulds was an adventurous figure of great innate musicality and superb technical skill. Among his best works are ''Three Mantras'' for orchestra and wordless chorus (1919–1930), ''Essays in the Modes'' for piano (1920–1927), the piano concerto ''Dynamic Triptych'' (1927–1929), and his ninth string quartet ''Quartetto Intimo'' (1931–1932).
