Laurence Crane

Laurence Crane (born 1961 in Oxford) is a composer.

He studied composition at Nottingham University with Peter Nelson and Nigel Osborne. He now lives and works in London.

He is closely associated with the ensemble Apartment House, for whom he has written two pieces specially: "Riis" (1996) and "John White in Berlin" (2003). He has also written much piano music, and pianists who have performed his work include Michael Finnissy, Thalia Myers and John Tilbury.

A 1995 "Gramophone" review described Crane's music as "as minimal as you can get, and irresistibly droll".
