DQ: Known for your work in literature?
Pomp and Circumstance March Number 1 is by Elgar. According to Wikipedia, the song Land of Hope and Glory was written by someone named Benson.
I think I’ve worked out what it was that was sending my train of thought down the wrong track Although he wrote neither the music nor the lyrics for “I Vow to Thee My Country”, Vaughan Williams was a close friend of Holst and widely believed to have encouraged its creation. So I had the wrong patriotic song and the wrong connection - sorry.
