Oct. 1, 1708, Westminster, London), organist and composer, remembered for his church music and for Venus and Adonis , which is regarded as the first true English opera. He was probably educated at the Magnus Song School in Nottinghamshire and in 1660 became a chorister at the Chapel Royal. He was appointed organist of Westminster Abbey (1668), and in 1669 he became one of the king's musicians for virginals. In March 1674 he was sworn in as a gentleman of the Chapel Royal and became master of the children, a position he held until his death. He had great influence on the choristers under him and also on his student, Henry Purcell . In 1676 or 1677 he became one of the Chapel Royal organists, and in 1677 the dean and chapter of Canterbury conferred on him a doctorate of musicthe first instance of what became known as a Lambeth Degree in music. In 1679 Blow was succeeded as organist at Westminster Abbey by Purcell; he was reappointed after Purcell's death in 1695. The years 1680-1700 were the most productive and prosperous of his life. In 1687 he became master of the children of St. Paul's, a position he held for 16 years; and in 1699 he received his last appointment, as first composer to the Chapel Royal. Blow's official positions entailed the writing of much religious and secular ceremonial music. Fourteen services and more than 100 anthems are extant, and many remain in regular use. He was at his best in the writing of full anthems in a simple chordal or contrapuntal style with melodies of great strength and sweetness developed over a ground bass. He excelled also in the writing of services; outstanding is his

    Extractions: in All Albums Biographies Reviews Classical Music Home John Blow was the most significant English composer in the generation before Henry Purcell, ten years his junior, whom he outlived by thirteen years. Born in 1649, the year of the execution of King Charles I, he was young enough to benefit from the restoration of the monarchy in 1660, with the revival of church music. Dramatic Works Blow's masque Venus and Adonis, a charming masque designed for the king's entertainment, influenced Purcell's better known short opera Dido and Aeneas, by the side of which it deserves a place. Sacred and Secular Vocal Music Like Purcell Blow wrote music mourning the death of Queen Mary, a monarch for whom he had six years earlier written coronation music, when, with her Dutch husband William of Orange, she had succeeded her Catholic father, King James II. His works include a quantity of vocal music, sacred and secular, the former including a well known setting of the Lord is my shepherd. Anthems include the distinguished I beheld, and lo! a great multitude, a verse anthem, with the customary instrumental accompaniment. For the coronation of King James II in 1685 he wrote the anthem God spake sometime in visions.
