Henry Aldrich was Dean of Christchurch, Oxford. He was born in 1647 and died in 1710. He was distinguished as a writer on logic, as an architect, and as a musician. His Compendium of Logic was a text-book until the end of the 19th century. He adapted many of the works of the older musicians, such as Palestrina and Carissimi, to the liturgy of the Church of England, and composed many services and anthems, some of which are still heard in English cathedrals.
