Coates, Eric. (1886–1957). Signed Photograph. Original portrait of the English composer and violist, probably from his final years, by R. Gordon Wilson, F.R.P.S, signed and inscribed to the lower photographer's mount, "Wishing South Wales & West / all the very best. Eric Coates."  11.5 x 8.5 inches (29 x 21.5 cm).  In fine condition. From the collection of English orchestra manager John Charles.

In 1919 Coates gave up the viola permanently and from then until his death he made his living as a composer and occasional conductor.  His prolific output includes the London Suite (1932), of which the well-known 'Knightsbridge March" is the concluding section; the waltz "By the Sleepy Lagoon" (1930); and "The Dam Busters March" (1954). Coates's style evolved in step with changes in musical taste, and his later works incorporate elements derived from jazz and dance-band music.
