Alexander Mackenzie b. 1847 in Edinburgh - whilst in England his inspiration and teaching to bring through English composers like Elgar finally ended the German jibe that England was a land without music. Funnily enough he studied music for a while in Germany while young!

Learmont Drysdale b. 1866 in Edinburgh noted for operas and songs

William Wallace b. 1860 in Greenock, a composer, a doctor, painter and poet!

Hamish MacCunn b. 1868 in Greenock, another Scotsman that taught the English how to compose, becoming a Professor of the RCM in 1888.

John Blackwood McEwen b. 1868 in Hawick, yet another Scotsman becoming a teaching Professor at an English college, the RAM, in 1898.

Ernest Bryson b. 1867 in Glasgow, famously had a public spat with Elgar.

Francis George Scott b. 1880 in Hawick, famous for his songs and settings of poems. One of the most talented (and sadly neglected, apart from his protegy the poet Hugh MacDiarmid who always promoted his work) composers Scotland has ever produced.

Cecil Coles b. 1888 in Kirkcudbright, young composer killed in the First World War.

Eugene d'Albert b. 1864 in Glasgow, a student of Liszt.

Frederick Lamont b. 1868 in Glasgow, another student of Liszt.

That's just some of the names off the top of my head, not even counting guys like Granville Bantock b. 1868 who had a Scottish father and wrote Scottish stuff like the Hebridean Symphony and was President of the Glasgow Orpheus Choir, or Donald Tovey b. 1875 who moved to Edinburgh permanently in 1914 and founded Edinburgh University's Reid Orchestra and when he died in 1940 bequeathed his scores and books to the University.
