William Boyce (1710-1779), son of a London cabinet-maker, was a famous organist and composer of church music and editor of a collection of Cathedral Music. Boyce held a number of important posts in London, including organist at St. Michaels, Cornhill, composer to the Chapel Royal, and conductor to the Three Choirs Festival. In addition to a great deal of sacred music he wrote a fair amount for the theatre.

Constant Lambert's second ballet Pomona, completed at the end of 1926, was produced by La Nijinska at the Theatre Colon, Buenos Ayres , in 1927. The story is based on the Roman legend of Vertumnus and Pomona, but as it is a classical tale, consisting of set dances without miming 6r descriptive interludes, it can give its message as pure music perfectly well without a knowledge of the story.
