Death of an English symphonist, 78
RIPWe are saddened to learn of the death of Christopher Gunning, from renal cancer.
Famed for writing the sax-led theme to ITV’s Agatha Christie Poirot series, he also composed 13 symphonies and numerous concertos, many of them recorded.
Two of his daughters are professional musicians. In my contacts with him he was always friendly and engaging.
