In several of Rob Barnett's reviews on MusicWeb, he refers to the six Piano Concertos of "the British Rachmaninov scion, Reginald Sacheverell Coke (1912-1975)". 

Not only have I never heard of this person, but he seems to show up on Google only in Rob's reviews - talk about unknown! Does anyone know more about him and his music?

It's actually Roger Sacheverell Coke, and he has been the subject of several posts across at least two threads, being a special research interest of forum member Gareth Vaughan -

Thank you! I wonder what was wrong with the Search function? I looked for Coke before posting, and it found nothing -- but they're showing up now!   ???
