Charles Burney (1726–1814) was an English organist and composer who became the leading music historian of his generation. Born in Shrewsbury and active in London, he is remembered above all for the four-volume A General History of Music (1776–1789), a landmark Enlightenment survey built from wide reading and contemporary enquiry. He also chronicled major public musical life in Britain, including the Handel commemorations documented in his Account of the Musical Performances in Westminster Abbey and the Pantheon.
