Edmund Rubbra was a 20th century British composer whose largescale, meditative fantasias in the polyphonic Renaissance manner, formed into symphonies, earned him considerable praise. He also wrote a great deal of chamber and sacred music. Rubbra's works went into eclipse in the 60s and 70s, as the BBC management pushed British serialists to garner musical attention abroad, but he lived long enough to see the critical tide reverse itself, and respect return for at least some of his life's work.

His Third Symphony was one of a group of a four that came together in quick succession. It has been called the most traditional of his symphonies, given his use of regular development alongside the transformational growth he learned from Renaissance fantasias, and preferred most of the time. The coloration of Sibelius, who had a profound impact on Rubbra early in life, is still felt here.
