Robert Ramsey (1590s – 1644)[1] was a Scottish-born composer and organist.
In the 1630s, like John Hilton, he composed mythological and biblical dialogues, such as Dives and Abraham, Saul and the Witch of Endor, and Orpheus and Pluto.
His most well-known work is probably "How are the mighty fallen", an anthem for soprano, alto, tenor and bass.
It is regularly performed throughout cathedrals and churches, normally in England.
The work is in the "Tudor Anthems" book, print by music publisher Novello & Co. and edited by Lionel Pike.
