Dudley Moore (19 April 1935 – 27 March 2002) was an English actor, comedian, musician and composer.
Even Moore to Love
You may not know that Dudley Moore
Could find his way around a score,
And worked throughout his lifetime as
A skillful pianist playing jazz,
And also in Beyond the Fringe
Wrote clever parodies that hinge
On knowing Beethoven and Britten
Were skewered in the notes he’d written.
