Rebecca Herissone was educated at the University of Cambridge and is Senior Lecturer in Musicology and Head of Music at the University of Manchester. She is the author of Music Theory in Seventeenth-Century England (2000) and 'To Fill, Forbear, or Adorne': The Organ Accompaniment of Restoration Sacred Music (2006). She has also produced a critical edition of the treatise Synopsis of Vocal Musick (2006), and edited and contributed to The Ashgate Research Companion to Henry Purcell (2012). Recent journal articles have appeared in the Journal of the American Musicological Society and the Journal of Musicology, and her article for Music and Letters on the scoring of Purcell's Come ye Sons of Art won the Westrup Prize for 2007. She is now a co-editor of the journal. She has written extensively on approaches to composition in late seventeenth-century English music.
Rebecca Herissone's study is the first comprehensive investigation of approaches to the creation of music in late seventeenth-century England.
