Biography: 

This English composer writes mostly religious music, especially since he joined the Greek Orthodox Church. Tavener composed mostly lithurgical mucic influenced by the Byzantine traditions. Is there an influence of Britten? Maybe but his compositions are original, deep and meditative.

He studied at Highgate School and the Royal Academy of Music.
