Grace Williams
(1906-1977)
Grace Williams was born in Barry, Wales and studied with Ralph Vaughan Williams and Gordon Jacob at the Royal College of Music in London, and with Egon Wellesz in Vienna. For a number of years she taught in London at the Camden School for Girls and at Southlands College of Education, before returning to Wales in 1946. She then worked on educational programmes for the BBC, but her main activity was as a composer. She wrote most of her major works in response to commissions from the BBC, the Royal National Eisteddfod and festivals at Llandaff (Cardiff) and Swansea. Grace Williams output is mainly for orchestra and for voices with orchestra, although she also wrote several songs.
