not the composer. John Browne stands apart from the other Eton composers in his exceptionally ...John Browne fl c 1490 is first among the composers of the Eton Choirbook both in size of contribution and excellence of achievement. It is astonishing that work of such exceptional interest should be known to us only from the Eton Choirbook, even given the paucity of late fifteenth and early sixteenth century sources works by Walter Lambe and Richard Davy are after all found elsewhere. Carols ascribed simply to Browne are preserved in the early sixteenth century Fayrfax Book British Museum, Additional MS. 5465 , but it is possible that they were composed by William Browne, Gentleman of the Chapel Royal from 1503 to 1511. Nothing is known for certain about Browne s life. A John Browne from Berkshire, born in 1425 and scholar successively of Eton College Eton and the sister College of King s College, Cambridge King s, Cambridge in the 1440s, is almost certainly too old to be our man for musical reasons we should expect Browne the composer to have been born at about the same time as Lambe, or a little later, rather than a quarter of a century earlier.
