| 释义 |
A self-taught musician, as a child and young adult he learned to play 15 different instruments and set about repairing barrel organs.[3] With the assistance of his father, he built his own organ and became organist at the Church of St Mary the Virgin, Masham, in 1832.[1] He won first prize in the Huddersfield Glee Club in 1840.[1] In 1852, he established a music business and became organist of St. John's Church at Bradford.[1] Later, he took the organ at Horton Chapel, was conductor of Bradford Choral Union, and chorusmaster of Bradford Festivals.[1] His works include two oratorios (Deliverance of Israel from Babylon and Isaiah); two cantatas (The Year and The Praise of Music); the 103d Psalm for solo, choir and orchestra; sacred music, glees; part-songs; and songs.[1] Jackson died suddenly in April 1866 and was buried in Undercliffe Cemetery in Bradford. His son, also named William, became an organist and composer too.[4] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{bdm|431}} 2. ^{{cite book |last1=Humphreys |first1=Maggie |last2=Evans |first2=Robert |title=Dictionary of composers for the Church in Great Britain and Ireland |date=1997 |publisher=Mansell |location=London |isbn=0-7201-2330-5 |page=183}} 3. ^{{cite ODNB |last1=Brown |first1=Clive |title=Jackson, William (1815–1866), composer and choral conductor |url=http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/10.1093/ref:odnb/9780198614128.001.0001/odnb-9780198614128-e-14559?rskey=plnWRa&result=8 |website=oxforddnb.com |accessdate=3 October 2018 |doi=10.1093/ref:odnb/9780198614128.001.0001/odnb-9780198614128-e-14559 |date=23 September 2004}} 4. ^{{cite news |last1=Priestley |first1=Mike |title=Delivering music to a royal audience |url=https://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/tahistory/featuresnostalgiapasttimes/877286.Delivering_music_to_a_royal_audience/ |accessdate=3 October 2018 |work=Bradford Telegraph and Argus |date=5 August 2006}} External links{{IMSLP|Jackson of Masham, William|William Jackson of Masham}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Jackson, William}}{{UK-composer-stub}}{{organist-stub}} 8 : 1815 births|1866 deaths|English composers|English organists|Male organists|19th-century British composers|19th-century English musicians|19th-century male musicians |
