  • William Horwood, aussi Horewud, est un compositeur anglais de musique polyphonique vocale du Moyen Âge tardif (c. 1430 – 1484). En 1470, il est chanteur à la cathédrale de Lincoln, en 1476, vicaire du chœur à Lincoln et de 1477 jusqu'en 1484, chef de chœur de la cathédrale. Trois de ses pièces complètes sont présentes dans le Livre de chœur d'Eton ainsi qu'une pièce incomplète, et une pièce incomplète dans le manuscrit de York Le Magnificat secundi toni a 5 de Horwood ressemble fort à des compositions de son presque contemporain Josquin des Prés (c. 1440–1521), à tel point qu'il pourrait facilement être confondu avec Josquin à première audition. Aucune mention n'est faite de Horwood parmi la liste des contemporains de Josquin dans le Grout non plus qu'est mentionné le livre de chœur d'Eton par Grout. (fr)

He has three complete pieces and one incomplete piece in the Eton Choirbook, and one incomplete piece in a York manuscript. Horwood's "Magnificat secundi toni a 5" bears a strong resemblance to compositions of his near contemporary Josquin des Prez (c. 1440–1521), so much so that he might easily be mistaken for Josquin upon first audition. No mention is made of Horwood among the listing of Josquin's contemporaries in Grout; neither is the Eton Choirbook mentioned in Grout. A very scanty on-line article – only a thumbnail description of the composer – is present on (FM 99.5, New York) WBAI producer Chris Whent's Here of a Sunday Morning site. (The link Partial William Horwood Discography has no content.) Virtually no other information is available on the internet. (en)
  • William Horwood (1430 circa – 1484 circa) è stato un compositore inglese. Di lui e delle sue composizioni si hanno pochissime notizie. Si sa che era un compositore di canti polifonici e che nel 1470 cantava alla Cattedrale di Lincoln. Nel 1476 divenne vicedirettore del coro di cui fu direttore dall’84 Delle sue composizioni ne sono pervenute quattro, di cui tre complete ed una incompleta nel Libro corale di Eton. Un'ulteriore composizione incompleta è contenuta in un manoscritto conservato a York. Il suo Magnificat secundi toni a 5 è estremamente somigliante a quella del suo quasi contemporaneo Josquin des Prez, al punto che ad un primo ascolto può essere attribuito proprio a Des Prez. (it)
