Sovereign Heritage and Jack Beaver



Picking out a random platter from my olde collection of gramophone records
(you remember them, black, vinyl, 12" across, lots of scratches) the other
day, I found myself listening to Sounds of Brass Volume 8 (Decca,1973) -
Black Dyke, conducted by Geoffrey Brand & Roy Newsome, featuring a piece I
had completely forgotten about - Sovereign Heritage, by Jack Beaver (crazy
name, crazy guy!!).

Sovereign Heritage is quite a mature work, (to my ears anyway, although they
are, admittedly, constructed of tin), but I have never heard of Jack Beaver,
before or since.  Surely it must be a pen name - but for whom?  Any ideas,
anyone?
