Peter Charles Arthur Wishart (25 June 1921 – 14 August 1984) was an English composer. Wishart was born in Crowborough. He studied with Victor Hely-Hutchinson in Birmingham and Nadia Boulanger in Paris from 1947–1948, then taught at the Guildhall School of Music, Birmingham University (where he wrote his monograph Harmony: a Study of the Practice of the Great Masters in 1956), King's College London (from where he published the book Key to Music in 1971), and Reading University where he was Professor of Music from 1977. His compositions include several neo-classical operas, orchestral and chamber pieces, and a large amount of church music. Critics have commented on Wishart's strong and individual lyricism and his admiration for the music of Igor Stravinsky.

has abstract	Peter Charles Arthur Wishart (25 June 1921 – 14 August 1984) was an English composer. Wishart was born in Crowborough. He studied with Victor Hely-Hutchinson in Birmingham and Nadia Boulanger in Paris from 1947–1948, then taught at the Guildhall School of Music, Birmingham University (where he wrote his monograph Harmony: a Study of the Practice of the Great Masters in 1956), King's College London (from where he published the book Key to Music in 1971), and Reading University where he was Professor of Music from 1977. His compositions include several neo-classical operas, orchestral and chamber pieces, and a large amount of church music. Critics have commented on Wishart's strong and individual lyricism and his admiration for the music of Igor Stravinsky. He was married three times and had two sons and a daughter. His second wife was Molly Holliday, a secretary in the music department of Birmingham University. On 26 May 1966 he married his third wife, the mezzo-soprano singer Maureen Lehane, with whom he worked at Reading University. They lived at Great Elm, near Frome, in Somerset and worked together until his death in 1984. Together they edited three volumes of Purcell song realisations, and she recorded a CD of his songs with pianist Alexander Kelly (British Music Society BMS 409). After his death Maureen began a music festival in his memory, the Great Elm Music Festival, and later the Jackdaws Music Education Trust. She died on 27 December 2010. His son by his first marriage was the composer James Wishart (1957-2018), also a pianist and lecturer at the University of Liverpool. The family is unrelated to that of the composer Trevor Wishart.
