Sloane Lane · Answer 1

The first composer is William Billings. At the age of 14, he stops from formal school because his father died, and he started to support his family. He was born in Boston, Massachusetts. He was trained in musical instruction from the choir members at the new south church but most of all his knowledge about his music is self-thought.
