Edward Woodall Naylor (1869-1934)

Edward Woodall Naylor (1869-1934) was an English organist and composer. Born in Scarborough, on the coast of Yorkshire, his father, John Naylor, was organist of York Minster.

Naylor won a choral scholarship to Emmanuel College, Cambridge, and from 1888 to 1892 was enrolled at the Royal College of Music in London.

After eight years as an organist of St. Michael’s Church, Chester Square (1889) and St. Mary’s Church, Kilburn (1896), Naylor returned to Cambridge in 1898, where he became an assistant master at The Leys School and organist of Emmanuel College.

Naylor lived in Cambridge until his death in 1934.

His church music blends elements of 16th to 20th century music and Naylor was considered an authority on Shakespeare and music, being an exponent of musical authenticity. His work, The Angelus, won the Ricordi prize for an English opera.
