George Norman Peterkin known to all as Norman, was an English composer and music publisher. He is perhaps best known today for his brief song “I heard a piper piping”.
Peterkin was born in Liverpool and was mostly self-taught in music. He started work with the local organ builder Rushworth & Dreaper in the late 1900s, moving to their Singapore office in 1911, and later to Hong Kong. While there he established himself as a pianist and also began to compose, much influenced by Cyril Scott. He returned to England in 1918.
