Sir Harrison Birtwistle CH was an English composer known for his contemporary classical operas based on mythological themes. His key works include 'The Triumph of Time' and operas 'The Mask of Orpheus', 'Gawain', and 'The Minotaur'. Born in Accrington, Lancashire, he was influenced by his surroundings and the conflict between nature and modern technology, which later influenced his work. Birtwistle's early exposure to music through a local band and orchestra set the stage for his formal education and eventual recognition, marked by numerous awards and honorary degrees.
