Well known as a violinist by 1786, the sitter moved to London to study with Johann Saloman and Benjamin Cooke, and later succeeded Manini in Cambridge as 'first master of the violin'. In 1794 he studied music at Trinity Hall, composing the anthem 'By the waters of Babylon', and in 1799 he succeeded John Randall as professor of music.
