William Inglott

[1] Inglott moved to Hereford Cathedral as Master of the Choristers from 1597 until some time after 1610, but returned to Norwich as organist in 1611, replacing the composer Thomas Morley.

The memorial shows two choristers bearing wreaths over his body and the following verse: Here Willyam Inglott Organist doth rest, Whose arte in musique this cathedrall blest, For descant most, for voluntary all He past: on organ, songe and virginall: He left this life at age of sixtie seaven; And now 'mongst angells all sings saint in heaven; His fame flies farr, his name shal never die; See art and age here crowne his memory.

Two keyboard pieces, The Leaves Bee Greene and A Galliard Ground, are preserved in the Fitzwilliam Virginal Book, a collection of Elizabethan and Jacobean keyboard music with works by Inglott's contemporaries, such as Thomas Morley, William Byrd and Martin Peerson.

[5] The musicologist Ian Payne describes the variations by Inglott in the Fitzwilliam Virginal as being "well crafted, richly polyphonic, and technically demanding".

[1] In 1989, Inglott's Short Service for four voices was reconstructed by Michael Walsh from transcriptions by Richard Turbet.
