William Parsons
Flourished: 1545, Wells, Somerset, UK
Died: 1563
Nationality: English
William Parsons was an English composer and copyist from Wells, Somerset.
Nothing is known of his early life. His name appears for the first time in the register of vicars-choral at Wells in 1555. Payments received by him around this time suggest that he was also employed as composer and copyist to the Wells Cathedral, most likely before 1550 where he was the Master of Choristers.
Only a few of his compositions survive, most incomplete.
