Julian Egerton

Julian Egerton (born August 24, 1848 in London; died January 22, 1945 in Bilsington) was a famous British classical clarinetist.

Despite contracting polio at the age of eight, he went on to have a lengthy, productive career, performing until the age of 93. He first studied under his father, William Egerton, and then with George Tyler of the Royal Philharmonic Society. He was the first British clarinetist to perform Brahms' Clarinet Quintet Op. 115. He taught at the Royal College of Music and Kneller Hall. His students included Charles Draper and Haydn Draper. His Fieldhouse clarinets are preserved in the Edinburgh Collection of Historic Musical Instruments.
