Richard Farrant
Richard Farrant (c. 1525 – 30 November 1580) was an English composer. Like many composers of his day, the early years of Farrant's life are not well documented. The first acknowledgment of him is in a list of the Gentleman of the Chapel Royal in 1552.〔Huray, Peter Le and John Morehen. "Farrant, Richard." In Grove Music Online. Oxford University Press. Accessed November 11, 2013. http://www.oxfordmusiconline.com/subscriber/article/grove/music/09332.〕 It is assumed from that list that his birth was around 1525. Although, that cannot be accurately determined. During his life he was able to establish himself as a successful composer, develop the English drama considerably, founded the first Blackfriars Theatre, and be the first to write verse-anthems.〔Flood, W. H. Grattan. "New Light on Late Tudor Composers: IV. Richard Farrant." The Musical Times vol. 65, no. 981 (Nov. 1, 1924): 989. http://www.jstor.org/stable/911576.〕 He married Anne Bower, daughter of Richard Bower who was Master of the Chapel Royal choristers at the time. With Anne he conceived ten children, one of whom was also named Richard.
==Work with Royalty==
As a member of the Gentleman of the Chapel Royal, Farrant was active in ceremonies surrounding the royal family. He began his work with the Chapel Royal around 1550〔Flood, “New Light on Late Tudor Composers: IV. Richard Farrant,” in The Musical Times.〕 under the reign of Edward VI. Fortunately, for Farrant, this is a time that saw huge developments in Latin Church Music.〔Benham, Hugh. “Latin Church Music under Edward VI.” The Musical Times vol. 116, no. 1587 (May, 1975): 477-478+480.http://www.jstor.org/stable/959422.〕 Composers like William Byrd and Christopher Tye were busy expanding and elaborating on the Church Music of the day.〔Turbet, Richard. “The Great Service: Byrd, Tomkins and Their Contemporaries, and the Meaning of 'Great.'” The Musical Times vol. 131, no. 1767 (May, 1990): 275+277.http://www.jstor.org/stable/966168.〕 In Farrant's twelve years with the Chapel Royal, he was able to participate in funerals for Edward VI and Mary I, and coronations for Mary I and Elizabeth I. After his work there, he took up a post as organist at St. George’s Chapel at Windsor.〔Huray and Morehen, “Farrant, Richard,” In Grove Music Online.〕
