DR. WILLIAM BOYCE held more than one of the positions, which entitle a musician to the whole-hearted respect of his fellows. He was in turn composer to the Chapel Royal, conductor of the Three Choirs (Gloucester, Worcester and Hereford), Master of the King's Music, and latterly one of the organises of the Chapel Royal. Born in London in 1710, he was a choir-boy at St. Paul's Cathedral, and afterwards an articled pupil for the organ there. At the age of twenty-four he was organist of a London church, continuing his studies under Dr. Pepusch. He was still quite a young man when the gravest of all calamities which can befall a musician overtook him-he became almost deaf. In spite of that, however, he continued his musicial career with unabated enthusiasm, and for many years was one of the foremost English composers. Most of his original music is for the Church, anthems and services, but he write a large number of stage pieces, too. There is much fine music buried in these, which would be well worth reviving.
