Composer
John Glenesk Mortimer (1951-)
Born May 11th 1951 in Edinburgh.
Attended George Watson's College.
I started attempting to compose when I was about 10, and wrote my first real, performable composition (an Oboe Sextet) at 12. At the age of 16 I wrote a full-length opera, Crime & Punishment, with my own libretto based on Dostoyevsky's novel. This won me the Douglas Grant composition prize and the George Watson's Prize and Bursary. My first professional performance was a trio for flute, bassoon and piano (1968). The same year, the school orchestra went on a tour of the States, and I conducted a composition written for the occasion in New York and Washington. In my last year at school (1969) I received my first paid commission, for a violin sonata, which was first performed in 1970 in Edinburgh.
