The fifth child and third son of Richard Huddleston Potter, Cipriani, John’s brother, also known as ‘Chip’, was a leading composer and pianist of his day. In 1822 he began teaching the piano at the newly founded Royal Academy of Music, and later conducting the orchestra. In 1832 he became Principal of the Royal Academy, resigning in 1859. He met Beethoven, produced many orchestral works, including twelve symphonies, and famously performed the English premiers of Beethoven’s 1st, 3rd and 4th Piano Concertos.
