English composer and keyboard player, born at Oxford (1583 - 1625), he is recognized as one of the most important English composers of the early 17th century.

In 1605 Orlando Gibbons was appointed to the prestigious position of organist of the Chapel Royal; in 1619 he succeeded Walter Earle as "one of his Majesty's musician"; in 1623 he became organist of Westminster Abbey.
