William Ayrton 1777 1858 , was an English musical writer. Ayrton was the younger son of Dr. Edmund Ayrton , born in London in 1777. On 17 May 1803 he married Marianne, the daughter of Dr. Arnold, the composer. In 1816 he went abroad to engage singers for the Italian opera at the Her Majesty s Theatre King s theatre , of which he undertook the direction in the following year, producing for the first time in England Mozart s Don Giovanni, and introducing to English audiences such great artists as Pasta, Camporese, Crivelli, and Ambrogetti. In spite of a very successful season Ayrton was obliged by the disputes of the company to retire from the direction. In 1821 he again under the management of Ebers took the post of musical director, but owing to the factious opposition he encountered from the committee he was again forced to resign. The remainder of his life he devoted entirely to literary pursuits, in which, both as a critic and writer in music, he occupied for many years a position far in advance of his contemporaries. From 1823 to 1833 he edited and contributed largely to the Harmonicon, a periodical the value of which has hardly been exceeded by any of its successors. In 1834 5 he published his Sacred Minstrelsy, and in 1834 5 6 the work known as the Musical Library, one of the earliest and best cheap collections of vocal and instrumental music. Ayrton was a F.R.S. , a F.S.A. , and one of the original members of the Royal Institution and the Athen um Club . He died at Bridge Street, Westminster, 8 March 1858.

Wikify date January 2011 William Bradshaw Floruit fl. 1700 , was a hack writer. Bradshaw was originally educated for the church. The eccentric bookseller John Dunton , from whom our only knowledge of him is derived, has left a flattering account of his abilities. His genius was quite above the common order, and his style was incomparably fine. He wrote for me the parable of the magpies, and many thousands of them sold. Bradshaw lived in poverty and debt, and under the additional burden of a melancholy temperament. Dunton s last experience of him was in connection with a literary project for which he furnished certain material equipments possessed of these, Bradshaw disappeared. The passage in which Dunton records this transaction has all his characteristic na vet , though it may be doubted whether, if Bradshaw lived to read it, he derived much satisfaction from the plenary dispensation which was granted him If Mr. Bradshaw be yet alive, I here declare to the world and to him that I freely forgive him what he owes both in money and books if he will only be so kind as to make me a visit. Dunton believed Bradshaw to be the author of the Turkish Spy, but this conjecture is negatived by counter claims supported on better authority. ref Gent.
