Clarence Lucas (October 19, 1866 – July 2, 1947), was a Canadian composer, lyricist, conductor, and music professor.
In Sèvres, just outside Paris, Lucas freelanced as a music transcriber, arranger, lyricist, and translator.
He toured the British Isles as a conductor for the Irish musical Peggy Machree, and the United States for Grieg's Peer Gynt.
The work had not been performed for nearly 100 years, until July 2018, where the music was orchestrated and recorded by the Symphonova[1] Orchestra, to mark the Canadian sesquicentennial.
Overture Macbeth can be found on the collection La Patrie - Our Canada, distributed by the Canadian Music Centre.
