Biography
John William Duarte (2 October 1919 – 23 December 2004) was a British composer, guitarist and writer.
Duarte was born in Sheffield, England, but lived in Manchester from the age of six.[1] Although his surname is of Portuguese origin, he considered himself 100% British – his father was Scottish and his mother was English – a fact that echoed throughout his music.
