p_barryhc.jpgAll that can presently (January 2024) be gleaned about H.C. Barry from sheet music covers and by Internet searching is that he was presumably a Brititsh composer/performer of at least 12 works published between 1892 and 1902.
His portrait on the left is taken from his The Ghost of Sherlock Holmes (1894) published by Francis, Day & Hunter, London W.C.2, England.
Surfers are welcome to contribute any further information about this composer.
