Dennis Brain
By 1945, Brain was the most famous horn player in England. He was still only 24. His father hurt himself in a fall and could not play much.  Dennis took over some of his work.  After the war two new orchestras were formed in London: the Philharmonia and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.  Brain was made  principal horn player in both. Later, he left the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra because he did not have time.
