A.k.a. William Charles Cole
William Charles Cole FSA LVO, DMus, FSA, FRAM, FRCM, FRCO (born 9 October 1909 in Camberwell, London – 9 May 1997) was an English conductor, composer and organist.Cole went to Saint Olave's Grammar School, where he in fact almost lost his scholarship there because 'his music was getting in the way of his studies'. He also studied at the Royal Academy of Music in London, where he won the Stewart Macpherson Prize in 1933. His appointment in 1930 as organist at St Martin's Church, Dorking and music master at Dorking County School a year later, led to his conducting local choirs at the neighbouring Leith Hill Musical Festival, founded by Ralph Vaughan Williams. The two became close friends and Vaughan Williams played the organ at Cole’s first marriage in 1933.
