About Arthur Butterworth
Arthur is perhaps the most prolific of the Lakeland Composers and has completed more than one hundred opuses. A Mancunian, he has lived in the North West for more than 50 years. Often described as "Northern Impressionism", virtually all his music has been the outcome of a contemplation of the aura of Northern England. Although acutely aware of the far-reaching developments of the avant-garde, the composer's allegiances have remained fundamentally within the tradition of English music of the early twentieth century.
