Dr. John C. Dressler, Professor Emeritus of Horn and Musicology, has been on the faculty of Murray State University since 1989. He continues to be active in the International Horn Society and the British Music Society as performer and author. For the BMS he currently serves as a new-recordings reviewer. His reviews appear in the BMS’s E-Newsletter issues since 2017. His bio-bibliographies on Gerald Finzi, Alan Rawsthorne, and William Alwyn have added updated information and data to the New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians articles on each. His most recent similar work on Granville Bantock provides seminal information for early twentieth-century British composer researches much of which is well above that provided in the New Grove article. Dressler’s next research project will focus on Eric Coates and his lasting importance in the area of Light Music.

'John Dressler’s book represents a welcome focus on a fascinating figure who deserves further exploration' Michael Allis, Music and Letters
