Cyril Bradley Rootham (5 October 1875–18 March 1938) was an English composer, educator, organist and important figure in Cambridge music life. Rootham was born in Redland, Bristol to Daniel Wilberforce Rootham and Mary Rootham (née Gimblett Evans). His father Daniel was a famous singing teacher whose students included Eva Turner and Dame Clara Butt, and it is therefore no wonder that his son should be such a successful composer of many choral and vocal works. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/
