Madeleine Dring
Madeleine Winefride Isabelle Dring (7 September 1923 – 26 March 1977) was an English composer and actress.
Madeleine Dring spent the first four years of her life at Raleigh Road, Harringay, before the family moved to Streatham. She showed talent at an early age and took lessons in the junior department of the Royal College of Music beginning on her tenth birthday. She attended the College with scholarships for violin and piano. As part of their training, all of the students performed in the children's theatre. She formally began composition studies at the RCMJD with Stanley Drummond Wolff in 1937, continued the next year with Leslie Fly, and the next two years worked with Percy Buck. She continued at the Royal College for senior-level studies, where her composition teacher was Herbert Howells. She had occasional lessons with Ralph Vaughan Williams. She dropped the study of violin after the death of her instructor, W.H. Reed, at the end of the first year. She also studied mime, drama, and singing. Dring's love of theatre and music co-mingled happily; many of her earliest professional creations were for the stage, radio, and television.
