George J. Elvey

1816 - 1893 Person Name: George J. Elvey, 1816-93 Hymnal Title: Christian Worship (1993) Composer of "ST. GEORGE’S, WINDSOR" in Christian Worship (1993) George Job Elvey (b. Canterbury, England, 1816; d. Windlesham, Surrey, England, 1893) As a young boy, Elvey was a chorister in Canterbury Cathedral. Living and studying with his brother Stephen, he was educated at Oxford and at the Royal Academy of Music. At age nineteen Elvey became organist and master of the boys' choir at St. George Chapel, Windsor, where he remained until his retirement in 1882. He was frequently called upon to provide music for royal ceremonies such as Princess Louise's wedding in 1871 (after which he was knighted). Elvey also composed hymn tunes, anthems, oratorios, and service music. Bert Polman

Anonymous

Person Name: Anon. Hymnal Title: Hymnal Companion to the Prayer Book with Accompanying Tunes (Second Edition) Author of "Christ, by heavenly hosts adored" in Hymnal Companion to the Prayer Book with Accompanying Tunes (Second Edition) In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
