Eric Fogg (21 February 1903 – 19 December 1939) was an English composer who died under tragic circumstances at the age of 36. His early works were influenced by Igor Stravinsky[1], though his later pieces owe more to Granville Bantock and Richard Strauss and even William Walton.[2] Much of his music has been lost. Charles William Eric Fogg was born in Manchester, the son of Charles H. Fogg, the organist for the Hallé Orchestra[3], who was his first teacher. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Er
