Peter Reynolds (1958 - 2016)

A key figure in Welsh music for several decades, Peter Reynolds was especially active in the musical life of his hometown of Cardiff, where he taught at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama. He was artistic director of the Cardiff-based PM Music Ensemble, which he formed in 1991, and also the Lower Machen Festival (1997–2009).
