This piece, composed by John Eccles (1668 – 1735), forms part of the incidental music for a larger theatrical work called "The Mad Lover" and is often played by an ensemble. Born in London as eldest son of professional musician, Eccles was appointed to the King's Private Music in 1694, and in 1700 became Master of the King's Musick. He was very active as a composer for the theatre. For much of the later part of his life, Eccles lived in Kingston upon Thames and wrote additional incidental music as well as the occasional court ode. He was the only Master of the King's Musick in the history of the post to serve four monarchs (King William III, Queen Anne, King George I and King George II).
The score for this piece is freely available on IMSLP.org.
Played on the sample set for the Henry Willis & Sons organ at St. Bartholomew's church in Groton Parish, England. The organ was built in 1888 for University College School in Hampstead, London and subsequently moved to the nearby Bickersteth Memorial Hall. It was discovered there in 1950 by the then director of music at Ipswich School and moved to Groton Parish church. Sample set by Lavender Audio.
