My favourite famous composer Biography • My favourite composer from China is Ding Shande. • Ding was born in Kunshan, Jiangsu. He studied music with teachers including Huang Tzu at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music. Ding taught at the Shanghai Conservatory in the late 1930s. From 1947 to 1949, he studied composition in the Paris Conservatoire with Noël Gallon, Tony Aubin, and Nadia Boulanger. He also attended the courses of Arthur Honegger. From 1949, he taught at the Shanghai Conservatory again and became a vice president of the conservatory later. He died in Shanghai in 1995. • Ding's influential composition includes the Long March Symphony, symphonic suite New China, and the children's piano suite Happy Festival. He has also written theoretical works. • Renowned conductor Yu Long is Ding's grandson.
