Christopher Tye
Born: c. 1505, Cambridgeshire, England
Died: 1572, England
Nationality: English
Christopher Tye was an English Renaissance composer and organist. Born in what is now Colchester (based on recent research), he trained at the University of Cambridge and became the master of the choir at Ely Cathedral. He is noted as the music teacher of Edward VI of England and was held in high esteem for his choral music, as well as chamber works such as his 24 polyphonic In nomines. It is likely that only a small percentage of his compositional output survives, often only as fragments; his Acts of the Apostles was the only work to be published in his lifetime.
He ceased composing when he became a clergyman, returning to Ely Cathedral and later becoming rector of Doddington, Cambridgeshire.
