America's First Composer William Billings
Boston Tanner William Billings, born October 7 1764, is highlighted as America's first composer. A deformed, eccentric, and tobacco-loving tanner, he wrote music with strong patriotic spirit that fueled Revolutionary fervor and influenced New England church music by introducing the violincello and possibly the pipe organ. He died in Boston on September 26 1800 and is likely buried in an unmarked grave on Boston Common.
