Let's make this birthday one to remember.

88 years old (Born on July 25, 1936)

Happy Birthday, Edward! May your special day be as eclectic and harmonious as the beautiful compositions you've gifted us. From orchestral masterpieces to intimate chamber ensembles, your music continues to inspire audiences with its timeless charm—proving once again that tonality never goes out of style!

Joining the Delian Society was just another brilliant note in a career filled with memorable melodies and innovative harmonies. Here's hoping this year brings you even more success, laughter-filled rehearsals, standing ovations—and perhaps fewer requests for last-minute revisions from overly enthusiastic conductors.

Cheers to you on composing yet another fantastic year ahead!
