Robert Ramsey
Born: c. 1595, Scotland
Died: 1644, Cambridge, UK
Nationality: Scottish
Robert Ramsey was a Scottish-born composer and organist.
He seems to have been from a family of court musicians to King James VI of Scotland, who followed him to London when he became King James I of England.
He probably began composing around 1610 and may have had court connections, having composed tributes to Henry Frederick, Prince of Wales, who died in 1612. He graduated as a Bachelor of Music from the University of Cambridge in 1616. He was organist of Trinity College, Cambridge from 1628 until 1644 and Master of the Children at the college from 1637.
