William Beale (1 January 1784 – 3 May
1854) was an English composer and baritone.
Beale was born in Landrake, Cornwall. He first served as a chorister at
Westminster Abbey under Dr. Arnold until his voice broke. He then served as
a midshipman on HMS Révolutionnaire from 1799 to 1801. During this period he
was nearly drowned by falling overboard in Cork Harbour. On leaving the Navy
Beale first worked as a letter-sorter for the Post Office, but then quickly
turned to music as a career. He became a member of the Royal Society of
Musicians in 1811 and in 1813 won the prize cup of the Madrigal Society for
his beautiful madrigal, ‘Awake, sweet music’. He devoted his career to music
and became an organist and composer of glees and madrigals. Around 1816 he
was appointed gentleman of the Chapel Royal, St.James Palace and was living
in Westminster. In 1820, he signed articles of appointment as organist to
Trinity College, Cambridge but only stayed at that position for a year
before returning to London and becoming organist at Wandsworth Parish Church
and then St.John’s, Clapham Rise. He continued occasionally to sing in
public until later in life, and in 1840 he won a prize at the Adelphi Glee
Club for his glee for four voices, ‘Harmony’. He also composed the glees
Come let us join the roundelay and The Humble Tenant. Beale was twice
married. Firstly to Miss Charlotte Elkins, a daughter of the Groom of the
Stole to George IV (Charles Paulet, 13th Marquess of Winchester or Thomas
Thynne, 1st Marquess of Bath), and secondly to Miss Georgiana Grove, of
Clapham. They had one son, Henry Wolfgang Amadeus Beale,
who went on to be a composer as well.
