William Hurlstone (1876-1906), born and died in London.  Premiered
his piano concerto but his asthma prevented a career as a pianist.  Became
professor of counterpoint at RCM.  There was a Lyrita CD of some orchestral
music and, IIRC, an LP containing his piano concerto.  Musicweb's search
engine provided quite a few useful links.  In one review, Rob Barnett
considers him "one of the lost great hopes of British music".
