Hilary Davan Wetton

Hilary Davan Wetton has enjoyed a distinguished musical career as both conductor and teacher. Director of Music at St Paul’s Girls’ School and then Tonbridge School, he has appeared frequently as a guest conductor with the UK’s leading orchestras and was Principal Conductor of the Milton Keynes Orchestra for more than 30 years. He was founder/conductor of the Holst Singers; through this and long-standing associations with the City of London Choir and Guildford Choral Society he has conducted all the major choral repertoire.

A champion of nineteenth- and twentieth-century British composers, he has conducted numerous neglected works and his many recordings have been critically acclaimed. His disc of Holst’s Choral Symphony won the Diapason d’Or in 1994.
