英国作曲家,音乐教育家,音乐学家。父亲是一位富裕的画家。他被送进伊顿公学学习,后来又到劳合社经商,但一直业余学习音乐。后来他希望向勃拉姆斯学习,因故未果。1880年他发表了第一部作品,并很快成名,于1883年出任新成立的皇家音乐学院教授,1898年受封爵士,1902年升为从男爵。帕里一生为英国音乐的复兴作了重大的贡献,许多著名的英国作曲家都是他的学生,包括沃恩威廉斯、古斯塔夫·霍尔斯特、弗兰克·布里奇以及约翰·爱尔兰。作为音乐学家,他曾为首版格罗夫音乐与音乐家辞典撰写了100多个条目,另外还著有几部有影响的学术论著。

Sir Charles Hubert Hastings Parry, 1st Baronet(27 February 1848– 7 October 1918) was an English composer, teacher and historian of music.

Parry's first major works appeared in 1880. As a composer he is best known for the choral song "Jerusalem", his 1902 setting for the coronation anthem "I was glad", the choral and orchestral ode Blest Pair of Sirens, and the hymn tune "Repton", which sets the words "Dear Lord and Father of Mankind". His orchestral works include five symphonies and a set of Symphonic Variations.

After early attempts to work in insurance, at his father's behest, Parry was taken up by George Grove, first as a contributor to Grove's massive Dictionary of Music and Musicians in the 1870s and 80s, and then in 1883 as professor of composition and musical history at the Royal College of Music, of which Grove was the first head. In 1895 Parry succeeded Grove as head of the college, remaining in the post for the rest of his life. He was concurrently Heather Professor of Music at the University of Oxfordfrom 1900 to 1908. He wrote several books about music and music history, the best-known of which is probably his 1909 study of Johann Sebastian Bach.

Both in his lifetime and afterwards, Parry's reputation and critical standing have varied. His academic duties were considerable and prevented him from devoting all his energies to composition, but some contemporaries such as Charles Villiers Stanford rated him as the finest English composer since Henry Purcell; others, such as Frederick Delius, did not. Parry's influence on later composers, by contrast, is widely recognised. Edward Elgar learned much of his craft from Parry's articles in Grove's Dictionary, and among those who studied under Parry at the Royal College were Ralph Vaughan Williams, Gustav Holst, Frank Bridge and John Ireland.
