I note that this morning BBC3 broadcast a piece by William Wordsworth.
After some research I found that this was the 20th Century composer
William Brocksley Wordsworth - not the early 19th Century poet.

Can you think of any artist who is both a composer and an author?

The only one I know is the late Anthony Burgess (John Anthony Burgess
Wilson) who wrote, among other works, "A Clockwork Orange" and "Earthly
Powers" and who composed several musical scores.
