Henry Purcell
1659 - 1695 Person Name: Henry Purcell, 1659-95 Composer of "WESTMINSTER ABBEY" in Together in Song Henry Purcell (b. Westminster, London, England, 1659; d. Westminster, 1695), was perhaps the greatest English composer who ever lived, though he only lived to the age of thirty-six. Purcell's first piece was published at age eight when he was also a chorister in the Chapel Royal. When his voice changed in 1673, he was appointed assistant to John Hingston, who built chamber organs and maintained the king's instruments. In 1674 Purcell began tuning the Westminster Abbey organ and was paid to copy organ music. Given the position of composer for the violins in 1677, he also became organist at Westminster Abbey in 1679 (at age twenty) and succeeded Hingston as maintainer of the king's instruments (1683). Purcell composed music for the theater (Dido and Aeneas, c. 1689) and for keyboards, provided music for royal coronations and other ceremonies, and wrote a substantial body of church music, including eighteen full anthems and fifty-six verse anthems.

Ernest Hawkins
1802 - 1868 Person Name: Ernest Hawkins, 1802-68 Adapter of "WESTMINSTER ABBEY" in Together in Song Hawkins, Ernest, B.D., son of Major Hawkins, born Jan. 25, 1802, at Hitchin, and educated at Balliol College, Oxford (B.A. 1842). He was for sometime a Fellow of Exeter College. On taking Holy Orders he became Curate of Burwash, sub-librarian of the Bodleian Library, Curate of St. George's, Bloomsbury, Minister of Curzon Chapel, Mayfair, London, Prebendary of St. Paul's, and Canon of Westminster. From 1838 to his death, Oct. 5, 1866, he also acted as secretary to the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. Besides his prose works, which were not numerous, he published Verses in commemoration of the Third Jubilee of the S.P.G. (Society for the Propagation of the Gospel), 1851-2. To this little collection his hymns were contributed. The most extensively used of these, "Lord, a Saviour's love displaying" (Missions), has been adopted by many collections.
