  • Thomas East (parfois orthographié Easte, Est ou Este ; c. 1540 — janvier 1609) est un notable imprimeur anglais spécialisé dans la musique. Il a été décrit comme un éditeur, mais cette déclaration est discutable (les spécialités d'imprimeur et de libraire/éditeur étaient généralement pratiquées séparément). Il apporte néanmoins une importante contribution à la vie musicale en Angleterre. Il imprime l'importante collection de madrigaux Musica Transalpina, parue en 1588 et la première impression en partition en Angleterre, pour une collection de Psaumes en 1592. Sa carrière est compliquée de par l'existence des privilèges ou des monopoles accordés par la couronne à William Byrd et Thomas Morley. Thomas East travaille en étroite association avec William Byrd. Il imprime des compositions religieuses de Byrd (notamment certaines clairement destinées aux services catholiques, messes et Gradualia). (fr)
