Composer David Beck was born in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, on 1 January 1941. He attended school in Folkestone, as well as the Kent Junior Music School in Maidstone, where he made rapid progress on both the violin and clarinet. At the age of 16 won a music scholarship to Gonville and Caius College Cambridge, where he studied composition. David’s last music was a short fantasy for two recorders on the well-known theme tune by Nick Ingman (and with his consent) to the popular TV series “Keeping up Appearances”, which will be published by Peacock Press.
